“Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law.” - Psalm 119.18
What a great prayer! David gives us some very good words here when it comes to the Bible, or “thy law” as he calls it here. “Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law.”
“…the God…”
2 Chronicles 32.19
“And they spake against the God of Jerusalem, as against the gods of the people of the earth, which were the work of the hands of man.” 2 Chronicles 32:19
“Who is there among you of all his people?
The LORD his God be with him, and let him go up.” - 2 Chronicles 36.23
The above verse comes at an amazing time in history. First of all, God uses a non-Jewish ruler, Cyrus – who was the ruler of the then known world, to encourage the work of the Lord.
“(for there is no man which sinneth not,)” - 2 Chronicles 6.36
This little parenthesis strikes me every time I read it!
The truth of it strikes me, and it strikes me more so because of where we actually find it in the Bible. It is right in the middle of King Solomon’s powerful prayer of dedication for the amazing temple in Jerusalem!
