How did Psalm 124 become associated with the Holy Innocents?
Upvote:1
To me, the imagery from the psalm perfectly represents Christ's escape from the killings that were taking place shortly after his birth. The psalm pictures our soul's escape from sin through the destruction of the snare much the same way Joseph's vision foiled the trap that was laid for the Christ. That seems to give the why pretty well.
As for the when, I am still looking for an answer to that question.
