Joe: Alright, so we have a Bible expert with us today, what can you tell us about the Book of Psalms?

Bible Expert: Sure, the Book of Psalms is a collection of 150 ancient Hebrew hymns, prayers, and other types of religious songs. It's one of the most popular books of the Bible, and it's divided into five books.

Joe: That's wild! So what does Psalm 136 tell us?

Bible Expert: Psalm 136 is a song of praise to God for His steadfast love and faithfulness. It has 26 verses that each begin with the phrase “Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good”. The psalmist expresses his gratitude to God for His compassionate, enduring love that never fails.

Joe: Wow! That's really powerful. What else should we know about this Psalm?

Bible Expert: Well, near the end of the psalm, the psalmist shifts his focus from thanking God for His love to thanking Him for His miraculous acts throughout history. He recalls how God rescued the Israelites from Egypt and how He led them through the Red Sea and provided them with food and water in the wilderness.

Joe: That's amazing! It sounds like God did some pretty incredible things.

Bible Expert: Indeed, He did. And this psalm is a reminder to us that God is faithful and loving, and He will always be with us.
