Psalm 105 is a positive hymn of praise to God starting: "Give thanks to the Lord, call on his name... tell of his wonderful acts!" The text traces God's blessing on the patriarchs Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, on Joseph in Egypt and on the miraculous deliverance of God's people through the plagues and exodus. The psalm remembers how God blessed and brought our Israel from Egypt "laden with silver and gold" and led them with cloud and fire. God fed them with quail and bread and gave them water to drink from the rock. God "brought out his people with rejoicing and his holy ones with shouts of joy!"
