Day 119 - Psalm 119

Julie

Today's psalm was interesting and very long. It is a continued praise for all God does, but was written in 22 stanzas. Each stanza follows the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet. I couldn't really tell the signficance of that, although I am sure that there is one.

This is a very long psalm.  But it seems to be praise for God and for each it's stating that this person is keeping Gods decrees and commands even when they are being persecuted or slandered.  The accompanying book says of this psalm that is it an alphabetic acrostic, eight lines of poetry for each letter of the Hebrew alphabet.  It also states is a celebration of the law.
