Welcome to the Spoken Gospel podcast.

Spoken Gospel is a ministry that's dedicated to speaking the gospel out of every corner of Scripture.

In Luke 24, Jesus told his disciples that every part of the Bible is about Him.

In each episode, hosts David and Seth work through a passage of Scripture to see how it's all about Jesus and his good news. Let's jump in. Well, welcome everyone to the spoken gospel podcast.

Thank you so much for joining us.

We are in our second unit of the Songs of Ascent.

We did an episode kind of overviewing the Songs of Ascent.

What are they?

Then we jumped into the first grouping of five.

That's right.

Now we're in the middle grouping of five before we look at the last group of five.

These are the middle Songs of Ascent, Psalm 125 to 129.

We've talked about this as like an album, like a concept album.

A concept album.

And we've talked about how the middle psalm of each group of five is kind of climactic.

Yep, the middle of the psalm, yep.

So does that mean this second, it's the middle of the three.

Is this a high point in the sense? And's the middle of the three. Is this the high point in the ascents? And is the middle of the... Yes. Second one, the high point of the high point? Yes. Okay. So the high point of the high point of these songs of Ascent. And if you're like, what's a song of Ascent? What do these mean? Just go back. Go back. There's plenty of content. I don't need to repeat here. You can listen to it. But the middle of the middle, if you go to it, Psalm 127. Yes. Read the superscription for me. A song of assents of Solomon. Solomon. What did Solomon do? He built the temple. He built the temple. Is this the only one? It's the only one. So it's the middle of the middle. Okay, it's the middle of the middle.

Pretty cool. What did Solomon do? He built the temple. He built the temple. Is this the only one attributed?

It's the only one.

So it's the middle of the middle. Okay, it's the middle of the middle. It's pretty cool. Temple is the middle of the middle. At the top of the metaphorical literary mountain is the temple. It's the temple. And the temple builder, the one who did it. That's right. Okay. Yeah, and just the first line is unless the Lord builds the house.

Yeah.
