Psalm 20 - 22

The twentieth psalm praises God for His protection of His people. This protection extends far beyond the ability of military strength or diversity; and is available at a moment's notice.

The twenty-first psalm praises God for His strength - which is far beyond the capability of kings and armies.

The twenty-second psalm is a Messianic psalm - it applies both to the psalmist's current situation and points ahead in time to the Messiah, of Whom it is rightly foretelling. This psalm finds many of its fulfillments in the events around the crucifixion. It outlines the horrible nature of the extent of God's wrath on the One Who paid the price for sin.
