Nimrod Tablet from 733 BC with enlarged inset.
In Judah God is known;his name is great in Israel.
Psalm 76
In Judah God is known;
his name is great in Israel.
2 His abode has been established in Salem,
his dwelling place in Zion.
3 There he broke the flashing arrows,
the shield, the sword, and the weapons of war.
Selah
4 Glorious are you, more majestic
than the mountains full of prey.
5 The stouthearted were stripped of their spoil;
they sank into sleep;
all the men of war
were unable to use their hands.
6 At your rebuke, O God of Jacob,
both rider and horse lay stunned.
7 But you, you are to be feared!
Who can stand before you
when once your anger is roused?
8 From the heavens you uttered judgment;
the earth feared and was still,
9 when God arose to establish judgment,
to save all the humble of the earth.
Selah
10 Surely the wrath of man shall praise you;
the remnant of wrath you will put on like a belt.
11 Make your vows to the Lord your God and perform them;
let all around him bring gifts
to him who is to be feared,
12 who cuts off the spirit of princes,
who is to be feared by the kings of the earth.
Israel is debated to have existed and then the Tel Dan Steele was found, explaining the House of David existed and was part of the Nation of Israel. 1,000 BC.
Could History show the Bible correctly tells of Israel becoming split and Judah is now part of the region. Yes. King Ahaz (written in the inscription as Jeho-ahaz, his longer name) of Judah, as translated by the University of Pennsylvania's RINAP project (The Royal Inscriptions of the Neo-Assyrian Period.) 733 BC.
Nimrud (/nɪmˈruːd/; Arabic: النمرود) is an ancient Assyrian city located 30 kilometres (20 mi) south of the city of Mosul, and 5 kilometres (3 mi) south of the village of Selamiyah (Arabic: السلامية), in the Nineveh plains in Upper Mesopotamia. It was a major Assyrian city between approximately 1350 BC and 610 BC.
The Nimrud Tablet K.3751, Present location British Museum, also known as Kalhu Palace Summary Inscription 7 is an inscription on a clay tablet c.733 BC from the reign of Tiglath-Pileser III (745 to 727 BC), discovered by George Smith in 1873 in Nimrud. The tablet covers the first 17 years of Tiglath-Pileser III's reign. Nimrud K3751 contains the first known archaeological reference to Judah (Yaudaya or KUR.ia-ú-da-a-a).
In Judah God is known; His name is great in Israel.
God Himself, put forth a plan telling David of an everlasting throne to display the Trust God has placed in David and honors David. Creating God's Plan of Righteousness. And David wasn't told Solomon would have 700 wives, 3 children with only one son. Solomon's son would find behavior to split Israel in half. His grandson would restore the two halves and the nation would slit again. Using the nation's name as Judah is saying, we move with the events God has brought us.
Then saying Israel is acknowledging God, as Lord of All, has a Plan for reconciliation of events to His Plan.
Psalm 76 is a lot like this 2020 year.
Who can stand before God?

the remnant of wrath you will put on like a belt.
11 Make your vows to the Lord your God and perform them;

We are seeing recovery.
Not a sullen recovery.
Recovery considering all possible Virus outcomes.
Vows to the Lord to sustain families. Sustain Life. People are performing within Judah as Israel. Determined to move to Life and protect ourselves, others and our families.
A recovery not throwing life to the wild winds, but a considered, God pleasing to sustain life recovery.
It's possible, as home builders are not slacking in building outside the cities, as cars are bought to avoid crowded bodies into mass transit - it's possible to think of new mass transit and different schedules. In the far North, trains ferry many things. Perhaps we will see trains ferry cars.
Little Town in Wyoming.
The Scriptures are real.
This passage considers fear and siege. Consider another passage with horses, fear and siege.
2 Kings 23:11 about King Josiah and destroying idols of the status quo
10 He also desecrated Topheth in the Valley of Ben-hinnom so that no one could sacrifice his son or daughter in the fire to Molech. 11 And he removed from the entrance to the house of the LORD the horses that the kings of Judah had dedicated to the sun. They were in the court near the chamber of an official named Nathan-melech. And Josiah burned up the chariots of the sun. 12 He pulled down the altars that the kings of Judah had set up on the roof near the upper chamber of Ahaz, and the altars that Manasseh had set up in the two courtyards of the house of the LORD. The king pulverized them there and threw their dust into the Kidron Valley.
Nathan-melech - this is Nathan-melech's seal.
JERUSALEM — The Israeli archaeologist Yuval Gadot is not a mushy guy. But in October, when he pulled a 2,600-year-old seal impression out of the ground in the Givati Parking Lot excavation in the City of David, he was “very emotional.”
The clay bulla, which dates to the middle of the seventh or beginning of the sixth century B.C., judging by the style of writing on it and the pottery found next to it. It reads: “l’Natan-Melech Eved haMelech,” or “to Natan-Melech, the king’s servant.” Natan-Melech is a name that appears only once in the Bible, in the Second Book of Kings.
Live as people who are free,
not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil,
but living as servants of God.
John 15:15
No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you.
