Psalm 52, (Pentecost 8C), The Old Testament Readings: Weekly
Comments on the Revised Common Lectionary, Theological Hall of the
Uniting Church, Melbourne, Australia.
- "Psalm 52 is an appropriate choice to sit alongside the reading from Amos 8:1-12 this week. The prophet speaks of those who through deception and trickery gain benefit over others, especially the poor. The psalmist speaks directly to such people and of their ultimate downfall, just as Amos does."
