Until the time that his word came: the word of the LORD tried him.
Psalm 105:19 belongs to the account of Israel's experience. It concerns Joseph, whose hardships continued until the time when God's word about him came to pass. Through that whole waiting period the word of the Lord tried and tested him.
God chose Joseph through much affliction to bear a heavy burden in an idolatrous nation. He was to work in the line God had chosen for him, so that the knowledge of God might shine forth in the kingdom of Egypt. He did not betray his sacred trust. The account of Israel's experience to which this belongs supplies warnings that God's people in the last days need to study.
