99:6 \u201cMoses and Aaron among His priests and Samuel among those who call on His name called out to the LORD and He answered them.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

This little catalogue gives us the prototypes of prophet and priest (Samuel was both, and Moses was from a priestly clan). The historical memory invoked provides a rationale and reassurance for the act of cultic celebration carried out through the psalm. Just as Moses and Aaron in the wilderness, and Samuel after them were answered when they called out to God, the throng of celebrants–led by the priests of their own day, and enjoined here to exalt God on Mount Zion–will also be answered.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
