Psalm 40:10
10 I have not hid [kacah] thy
righteousness [tsadaqah] within
[tavek] my
heart [leb]; I
have declared ['amar] thy
faithfulness ['emuwnah] and
thy salvation [tashuw`ah]: I
have not concealed [kachad] thy
lovingkindness [checed] and
thy truth ['emeth] from
the great [rab]
congregation [qahal]. KJV-Interlinear
10 I have not hidden your deliverance within
my heart; I have spoken of your faithfulness and your salvation; I have not
concealed your steadfast love and your faithfulness from the great
congregation. ESV
David is writing
the words, but the words and thinking are those of Christ. One member of the
Trinity, the Son, is speaking to another member of the Trinity, the Father.
The idea behind
the words for righteousness, and faithfulness, and salvation, and lovingkindness,
convey the entire concept and design and plan of God from truth, which is
revealed to us within the content of Bible doctrine.
Righteousness is
truth. Faithfulness is our reliance on God to never change. Salvation is God’s
plan. Lovingkindness represents Gods grace.
The great
congregation, is all of creation, and all of created life, throughout all of
history.
Truth and God’s
plan, have always been revealed.
God has never tucked
them away within His own mind, and has never hidden truth from any of creation.
The angels knew
the content of truth, as it applied to them, and humanity has known the content
of truth and God’s plan, as it applies to us.
Truth is public
and never hidden, while the dark side, or the lies against truth, are always
kept hidden, and seek to deceive and destroy out of the darkness that they
exist in.
Study [by instruction],
to show thyself
approved [spiritually mature]
unto God,
a workman [student]
that need not be
ashamed [ignorant],
rightly dividing [learning, understanding, discerning]
the word of truth [Bible doctrine].
These
studies are a part of the massive daily study web site at DailyBibeStudy.Org,
and are written, so that you can come to Christ if you have not done so
already, and therefore not be lost forever.
And
if you have already believed in Christ, then these studies are written so you
can learn and understand and grow in your spiritual life, so that you can come
to the full knowledge of Christ, so that you can fulfill your meaning and
purpose in life as God intended for you, and so you can qualify for a
phenomenal eternal reward which you will have forever. To ignore this opportunity to pursue a daily
study means you will be incomplete, unfulfilled and you will lose out, big
time.
The
Daily Bible Study is online, making it possible as never before in all of human
history, to advance in ones relationship with God, through Christ, and to
complete yourself beyond your imagination.
But
you have to decide to make that commitment.
No one else can study for you.
You have to do that yourself.
