Psalm Ps. 26. This psalm may be part of an entrance liturgy by which pilgrims came into the sanctuary. If this is the case, the psalm shows those who attend worship what qualities the ideal covenant participant should possess (see Psalms 15 and 24). The psalmist’s claims of innocence must be understood in light of God’s steadfast love and faithfulness (26:3). This clearly echoes Ex. 34:6 and shows that God’s grace is the foundation for holy living.
Ps. 26:1–3 For God to vindicate the worshiper means that he distinguishes between the faithful and the unfaithful. The faithful are those who obey the covenant, who keep God’s steadfast love . . . before their eyes and walk in God’s faithfulness. They live by the grace revealed in Ex. 34:6.
Ps. 26:4–8 The faithful covenant participant refuses to join with the unfaithful (hypocrites, evildoers, wicked) in their crooked schemes. He rejects their values (see 1:1). He aims to take part in public worship with moral innocence and with delight (love, 26:8).
