The Sublime Beauty of The Bible


Psalms 19:6 KJV
His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.

This Psalm is fascinating and beautiful in its transition from earthly testimonies of the glory of God to the Word of God.

We begin with the heavens declaring the glory of God and move to a specific unit; the sun. It is described in a fashion that is remarkably similar to what we know of the Saviour (as this Psalm serves as a prophecy concerning Him).
  • He is a bridegroom
  • He is the light of the world
  • He came forth to the earth
  • He has gone into heaven but will return
  • His influence reaches all of the earth, even in those lands where He is rejected
And then, in verse seven, the Psalm transition to the law of the Lord.

  • What beauty
  • What majesty
  • What glory
Is the Word of God.
