The Blessed Foundation of Zion: A Reflective Reading of Psalm 87

In this episode, we turn our hearts to Psalm 87, a profound song for the sons of Korah that lifts our spirits towards the holy mountains. Exploring divine favor on the gates of Zion, we find ourselves immersed in the rich imagery of this sacred city that God loves more than all the dwellings of Jacob. The Psalmist brings to light the glory of Zion, where every notable birthplace is celebrated, from Rahab to Babylon, Philistia, Tyre, and Ethiopia. Join us as we reflect on the promise that the Lord Himself shall establish Zion, counting its people with care and showing us that all our springs are indeed found in this hallowed place.
