A) In David's plea, he asks to be thoroughly cleansed from all his iniquity, not just a portion of it. He requests a complete cleansing, from top to bottom. He asks God to examine him and cleanse him of any iniquity found within him. However, everything hinges on verses 3-4, when David acknowledges his transgression. This acknowledgement is key to repentance. Repentance isn't always about how we feel, but it is always about being honest about our actions. Salvation isn't based on feelings. If that's the case, then repentance isn't based on feelings either. It's a change of mind to agree with God.
B) As we delve deeper into Psalm 51:5, it’s challenging to gloss over the verses. This is a fervent song pleading for forgiveness and restoration, something we all need. David proclaims, “Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity.” Some interpret this as David’s birth being illegitimate, but a holistic understanding of the Psalm suggests he’s referring to the inherent sinfulness of all humanity, tracing back to Adam and Eve.
