Continuing the spiral of questions: "Has his steadfast love ceased forever? Are his promises at an end for all time?" These questions directly interrogate the foundational covenantal terms—God's hesed (steadfast love, covenant loyalty) and the reliability of God's word. The progression of questions moves from concern about divine favor to fundamental doubts about the nature of God's commitment to the covenant. By articulating these doubts explicitly, the psalmist creates space for their ultimate refutation through the act of remembrance and testimony.
