Should Christians Pray Imprecatory Psalms?

Episode 622 Show Notes

From the Show

Under the old covenant, the psalmists are responding to the pain and hurt that the people of Israel had experienced. But when Jesus came and instituted the new covenant, he calls us, as he did, to love our enemies. As Jesus has loved us, so we are called to love our enemies as well.
