Still Standing at God’s Word (Psalm 119:91)

Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church Season 5 Episode 32

In the first three verses of the twelfth stanza of Psalm 119 (vv. 89–91), the psalmist praises the Lord’s word by going back to its first use, the creation of the universe, and noting how we can still see the effects of that first use to this day. In vs. 91, he also uses this evidence to comment on God’s name, the Lord of Hosts.
