📚 Historical Context
Psalm 94 was likely written during a time of national distress in ancient Israel, such as the Babylonian exile or periods of foreign oppression, when the people faced injustice and longed for God's intervention. In this verse, the psalmist appeals to God to provide relief and rest for the righteous amid their troubles until divine judgment falls on the wicked. This reflects the broader biblical theme of God's faithfulness in protecting His people and executing justice.
