Read the rest, the context and the outline

The Hallel's climax, the last song before Gethsemane. 'Oh give thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; for his lovingkindness endureth for ever.' Out of my distress I called; 'Jehovah is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?' All nations compassed me about; in the name of Jehovah I will cut them off. 'The stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the corner' (quoted by Jesus and Peter of himself. 'This is the day which Jehovah hath made… Blessed be he that cometh in the name of Jehovah'), the Palm Sunday cry. 'Thou art my God, and I will give thanks unto thee.'
