WORD STUDY – REMEMBER THE DUST – זכור אפר
Psalms 103:14: “For He knows our frame, Remembering that we are dust.” I mean really, what is this supposed to mean that He knows our frame? What is our frame? I have a PhD and I can’t even tell you what this verse is saying by reading our English...
WORD STUDY – AS A FATHER – כאב
Psalms 103:13: “Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear him.” There are a few little nuances in this verse that many would feel are unimportant. Yet, when you are seeking the heart of God, these little nuances...
WORD STUDY – REWARD US ACCORDING TO OUR INIQUITIES
Ps 103:10 He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities. Scripture talks of three levels of sin. You have chata’ which is mentioned at the beginning of this verse where God tells us that we will not take on the image or...
WORD STUDY – HE HATH NOT DEALT WITH US – לא עשׁה לנו
Ps 103:10 He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities. Say what? Woo Woo, wait a minute, wait one dog gone minute. Am I reading my Hebrew right? Is he actually using the word asah here? And does He also use a...
WORD STUDY – HE WILL NOT KEEP HIS ANGER FOREVER – לא לעולמ יטור
Psalms 103:9: “He will not always content, neither will he keep his anger forever.” “It has been said that time heals all wounds. I do not agree. The wounds remain. In time the mind, protecting its sanity, covers them with scar tissue and the pain lessons....
WORD STUDY – HE WILL NOT ALWAYS CONTEND – לא לנצח ייב
Psalms 103:9: “He will not always contend; neither will he keep [his anger] forever.” So I just get done talking about how loving and merciful God is and now we have a God who is contentious and angry. Frankly, I don’t blame some atheists who say they...
WORD STUDY – HE HAS MADE KNOWN – יודיע
Psalms 103:7: “He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.” Has God ever made anything known unto you? Note he made his ways known to Moses but it was his acts that he made known to the children of Israel. Why would God...
WORD STUDY – PLENTEOUS IN MERCY – רב חסד
Ps 103:8 The LORD [is] merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy. Plenteous in mercy. I guess that means God has gobs and gobs of mercy. What kind of bothers me is that word plenteous. Come Halloween neighbors are stacking up with a...
WORD STUDY – WORD OF JEHOVAH BECAME – יהי דבר יהוה
Jonah 3:6: “For word came unto the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, and he laid his robe from him, and covered himself with sackcloth, and sat in ashes.” Jonah lived somewhere around 780 BC. He was probably in his thirties or forties when he preached...
WORD STUDY – SLOW TO ANGER – אפימ ארכ
Psalms 103:8: “The LORD [is] merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.” For me to the best place to start in my study on the passage is on this matter of God being slow to anger. If you have been following my blog you know that an angry God...
