Another question is tehillim 79 which begins "mizmor le-asaf" and talks
about the destruction of the Temple.
The midrash asks why start with mizmor which indicates a song and answers
that G-d spent his wrath on stones rather than destroying the nation.

The question is why or how is Asaf writing a chapter in tehillin about the
future destruction of the temple
not clear who asaf was see for example
