His Steadfast Love Endures Forever

The refrain 'his chesed endures forever' repeated through all creation and redemption points to Yeshua's cross as the supreme expression of that eternal love.

  11. He Brought Israel Out of Egypt

    Elohim's love was active in Egypt — every plague, the parting sea, the wilderness journey. Love did all of it.

  13. 11and brought out Israel from amongst them, for his chesed endures forever;

  17. 15but overthrew Pharaoh and his army in the Red Sea, for his chesed endures forever;
  18. 16to him who led his people through the wilderness, for his chesed endures forever;
  19. 17to him who struck great kings, for his chesed endures forever;

  23. 21and gave their land as an inheritance, for his chesed endures forever;
  24. 22even a heritage to Israel his servant, for his chesed endures forever;
  25. 23who remembered us in our low estate, for his chesed endures forever;
  26. 24and has delivered us from our adversaries, for his chesed endures forever;
  27. 25who gives food to every creature, for his chesed endures forever.
  28. 26Oh give thanks to the Elohim of heaven, for his chesed endures forever.
