Background

Psalm 75 is in the Leviticus book of the Psalms (73—89). The Old Testament book of Leviticus focuses on matters in the sanctuary: the priesthood, ceremonial laws, and feasts. Almost all of these 17 Psalms mention the sanctuary and God’s relation to it. This Psalm shows the Messiah who is righteous and humble overcoming the prideful, who lift up their own “horn” in wickedness.
