Interesting notes:

·        Psalms 61-63 were probably written when David was seeking refuse from Absalom's rebellion.

·        The book of Psalms is divided into 5 "books." The second one covers Psalms 42-72. Psalm 72:18-20 is the doxology and closing verse to that "book."

·        Asaph (who wrote Psalm 73-79 and others) was the leaders of David's Levitical choir.

·        In Psalm 78:44-51, we see 7 of the 10 plagues spoken about (in the following order: 1st, 4th, 2nd, 8th, 7th, 5th, 10th)
