Context of Psalms 78:32
30But God became very angry with them, even before they had finished eating. While the food was still in their mouths, he killed the strongest men among them. Many of the best young Israelite men died. Even when this happened, the people continued to do bad things. When God had done these miracles, they still did not trust him to help them. 33So he made their lives end quickly, like a breath. They became very afraid. 34When God killed some of them, the other people turned to God. They were sorry and they prayed to him.

Commentaries on Psalms 78:32
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 32For all this they sinned still - How astonishing is this! They were neither drawn by mercies, nor awed by judgments! But we shall cease to wonder at this, if we have a thorough acquaintance with our own hearts.Read the comment
- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 32For all this they sinned still - Even this did not reclaim them, and prevent their sinning. Heavy judgments do not always restrain men from sin. Not unfrequently they take occasion from such judgments to sin the more. And believed not for his wondrous works - They did not trust in His wondrous works; or, those works did not have the effect of producing faith. See Psalm 78:22-23. The same thing occurred in the life of the Saviour. John 12:37.Read the comment
