11. What commitments did David make in 56:10-13?

3. What commitment did David make and what did he promise to the Lord – 57:7-11?
4. How does David describe the wicked in 58:1-5?
5. Case Study: Verse 3 says they go astray as soon as they are born, so Calvinists say this proves babies inherit the guilt of Adam’s sin (see notes on 51:5). Does the context say anything about Adam or Adam’s sin? Does it say people inherit sin or commit sin? Consider other passages such as Ezekiel 18:20; 2 Corinthians 5:10, and prepare a response.

Have Mercy on Me, O God, and Cleanse Me from My Sin
============================================

David's repentance shows what we must do when we sin. Do we inherit the guilt of sin from Adam? Must we meet conditions to be forgiven? How important is the attitude of our heart? What consequences follow if we hide our sins and try to excuse them? What happens to the person who does evil and thinks he can profit from it?
