Remember the wonders He has done
on 1 Chronicles 16:12-15
Verses 12 through 15 parallel Ps 105:5-8. Israel is to remember “the wonders He has done” and “the judgments He has pronounced”, and the singers address the “offspring of His servant Israel”. The covenant “for a thousand generations” leads into three verses that name Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in turn.
