Some say it means to instruct, while others say that the word is referring to the skill used in creating the psalm. Still others think it means that meditation should be used in reading this psalm. 74:intro nd5v 0 # Psalm 074 General Notes\n\n## Type of psalm\n\nPsalm 74 is a psalm of deliverance.

Alternate translation: “When we saw men hacking to pieces the woodwork in the Temple it seemed like those men were like men in the forest who chop down trees with their axes” or “When I saw men hacking to pieces the woodwork in the Temple it seemed as if those men were like men in the forest who chop down trees with their axes””
