Psalm 19

Commentary

Psalm 19 is a wonderful example of the biblical theme of general and special revelation. The heavens and the created order demonstrate the attributes of God and his power, but they do not reveal the fullness of his character or the way of salvation. The law of God provides this special revelation, showing us our need for a Savior and pointing us to Christ. The psalmist's desire for obedience to God's law reflects the ultimate goal of the Christian life, which is to glorify God in all we do and say. May we also be inspired by this psalm to celebrate God's glory in all of creation and to seek his will through his perfect Word.
