Intertextuality Pair

Psalm 106:44-46 → 1 Kings 8:47

Echo

Later text

Psalm 106:44-46BSB

Nevertheless He heard their cry; He took note of their distress. And He remembered His covenant with them, and relented by the abundance of His loving devotion. He made them objects of compassion to all who held them captive.

Earlier text

1 Kings 8:47BSB

and when they come to their senses in the land to which they were taken, and they repent and plead with You in the land of their captors, saying, 'We have sinned and done wrong; we have acted wickedly,'

Significance

The connection between 1 Kings 8 and Psalm 106 illuminates Israel's worship theology. Patterns of true worship develop through Scripture, finding their fulfillment in Christ, who enables worship 'in spirit and truth' (John 4:23-24) as both our sacrifice and our High Priest.
