Psalms 136:1

1 136:1 The ancient rabbis said that the twenty-six verses of this Psalm correspond to the twenty-six generations from Adam to Moses. They maintained that since these generations were not given the Torah (Law), they could not earn merit and were sustained only by God’s “lovingkindness.”Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good;

For His lovingkindness (graciousness, mercy, compassion) endures forever.
