“Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: O LORD, thou preservest man and beast.” Psalm 36:6
The human mind is not capable of understanding the magnitude of God. It can only draw pictures or compare Him to those things that are visible. What better way is there for simple man to visualize GOD’s righteousness than to compare it to the greatest, most high mountain? “Thy righteousness is like the great mountains”
The depth of GOD’s judgement is here visualized in comparing it to the depth of the great oceans. A place where man has not seen the deepest part. The depth is to deep for us to understand. “thy judgments are a great deep: O LORD”
We stand in awe of His majesty and love. Our only expression is limited to, “O LORD”! We are completely overwhelmed by HIS most excellent glory. GOD is, “I AM that I AM”, the All Sufficient, complete in every respect! “O LORD, thou preservest man and beast.”
I saw a great mountain
It stood tall and great.
But to compare it to GOD
Is a great mistake.
Even the depth of the ocean
Can not express.
The glory of GOD
It’s so much less.
GOD’s righteousness pure
To the highest degree.
His judgments are deeper
Than the deepest sea.
“Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high” Hebrews 1:3
