Psalms 82 Bible Study Guide

Psalm 82 is a bold psalm in which God stands in the divine assembly and judges the gods (elohim) who have judged unjustly. They have shown partiality to the wicked and failed to defend the weak and needy. The psalm declares that though they are called gods and sons of the Most High, they will die like men. Jesus quoted this psalm in John 10:34-36 to defend his claim to be the Son of God.
