Psa 74:13 | “You broke the heads of the sea monsters in the waters.” The “sea monsters in the waters” refers to the known mythology (and the kernel of truth that they portray) about the ancient war between God and the “gods” (God’s created spirit beings like Satan) over God’s created order and who will rule creation. The “waters” and “sea” became symbolic of the chaos that surrounded these gods, and the Bible states that God had victory over them (see commentary on Isa. 27:1 and 51:9). (top) |

Psa 74:22 | “Remember.” This is the idiomatic or “pregnant” sense of “remember,” meaning remember, pay attention, and do something about the situation. “Do not forget” in Psalm 74:23 has the same meaning. [For more on the idiomatic sense of remember, see commentary on Luke 23:42.] (top) |
