The "great assembly" refers to the congregation of Israel, often gathered for festivals, sacrifices, or other religious observances at the temple in Jerusalem. This setting underscores the communal aspect of worship, where individual expressions of faith are shared and amplified within the community. The act of praising God in such a setting reflects the psalmist's acknowledgment of God's deliverance and faithfulness, which is a recurring theme throughout the Psalms. This public declaration of praise can be seen as a fulfillment of the call to worship found in other scriptures, such as <a href="/psalms/35-18.htm">Psalm 35:18</a>, where the psalmist vows to give thanks in the "great congregation." Theologically, this anticipates the New Testament concept of the church as a body of believers who gather to worship and glorify God collectively, as seen in <a href="/hebrews/10-25.htm">Hebrews 10:25</a>.<p><b>I will fulfill my vows before those who fear You.</b><br>Vows in the Old Testament were solemn promises made to God, often in response to His deliverance or blessing. The fulfillment of vows was a serious commitment, reflecting the integrity and faithfulness of the worshiper. In this context, the psalmist's intention to fulfill vows "before those who fear You" indicates a public demonstration of faithfulness and gratitude. This act serves as a testimony to the community of believers, reinforcing the importance of accountability and witness among those who revere God. The phrase "those who fear You" refers to the faithful, those who live in reverence and awe of God, aligning with the wisdom literature's emphasis on the fear of the Lord as the beginning of wisdom (<a href="/proverbs/9-10.htm">Proverbs 9:10</a>). This public fulfillment of vows can also be seen as a type of Christ, who perfectly fulfilled His mission and promises before God and humanity, as seen in <a href="/john/17-4.htm">John 17:4</a>, where Jesus speaks of completing the work given to Him by the Father.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/d/david.htm">David</a></b><br>Traditionally attributed as the author of <a href="/bsb/psalms/22.htm">Psalm 22</a>, David is expressing a deep sense of trust and commitment to God, even amidst suffering.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_great_assembly.htm">The Great Assembly</a></b><br>This refers to the congregation of believers, possibly in a temple setting, where public worship and declarations of faith are made.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/t/those_who_fear_god.htm">Those Who Fear God</a></b><br>This phrase describes the community of believers who hold God in reverence and awe, acknowledging His sovereignty and holiness.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/t/the_source_of_praise.htm">The Source of Praise</a></b><br>Recognize that true praise originates from God.
