Psalm 108 seems to be one of [[David]]'s battle songs. It is almost identical with parts of [[Psalms]] 57 and 60.
Psalm 109 deals with vengeance on [[God]]'s adversaries. It is another of the Imprecatory [[Psalms]].
Psalm 110 can only refer to [[Jesus Christ]]. It was written 1,000 years before Christ, and parts of it are quoted in the New Testament ([[Matthew]] 22:44; Acts 2:34; Hebrews 1:13 and 5:6). This Psalm affirms the deity of Christ, thus answering those who denounce the full meaning of His [[New Testament]] title of [[Lord]]. It also announces the eternal Priesthood of the [[Messiah]] and looks forward to the time when Christ shall appear and rule in the midst of His enemies.
[[Psalms]] 111--113 are [[Psalms]] of great praise. In Psalm 111 the [[Lord]]'s work of redemption is praised; in Psalm 112 the righteous are rewarded by the King Priest on His throne; and in Psalm 113 the [[Lord]] is praised for what He is (verses 1-6) and for what He does (verses 7-9). This Psalm was probably sung by families at the beginning of the meal on the night of the Passover. It might have been sung by [[Jesus]] and His disciples at the Last Supper. It is sometimes called the Hallel Psalm--meaning praise.
