The psalmist’s words about sowing and reaping illustrate Jehovah’s care for and blessing on the remnant that returned from captivity in ancient Babylon. They were very happy at their release, but they may have wept when sowing seed in the desolate ground that had not been worked during their 70 - year exile.
Kad šie cilvēki tika atbrīvoti, viņi bija ļoti laimīgi, bet ir pilnīgi iespējams, ka viņi raudāja, sējot sēklu izpostītajā zemē, kas nebija apstrādāta 70 izsūtījuma gadus.
