Wells of Living Water Commentary - Psalms 139:1-24

Thou God Seest Me Selections from Psalms 139:1-24 INTRODUCTORY WORDS The world today needs a new vision of the Deity of Christ. Our Lord Jesus has been dragged down from His place of authority and power, until the men of the world would leave us nothing but a great man as our Lord and Saviour. The Christ of the Bible was God manifest in the flesh. He was the One who was on earth, and came down from Heaven, even the One who was in Heaven. He was the One who knew all things, who looked into... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 139:1-24

CXXXIX. God is Everywhere: He Knows Everything— Oh that He would Destroy the Wicked.— This Ps. is among the most spiritual productions of the OT. It deals with the mystery of Divine providence, a theme frequently discussed after the Exile, when the national life had died out and each individual was brought face to face with the difficulties which surrounded him and with the thought of his ultimate fate. Other nations, of course, have engaged in similar speculation, but in very different tone... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Psalms 139:14

I am fearfully and wonderfully made; thy infinite power and wisdom, manifested in the rare and curious structure of man’s body, doth fill me with wonder and astonishment, and with the dread of thy majesty. Marvellous are thy works; both in the lesser world, man, and in the greater. My soul knoweth right well; I am well assured, both by thy word, and by the contemplation and study of thy works, to which I have much addicted myself, that they are wonderful, although I do not so accurately... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Psalms 139:1-24

INTRODUCTION“Nowhere,” says Perowne, “are the great attributes of God—His omniscience, His omnipresence, His omnipotence, set forth so strikingly as they are in this magnificent Psalm. Nowhere is there a more overwhelming sense of the fact that man is beset and compassed about by God, pervaded by His Spirit, unable to take a step without His control; and yet nowhere is there a more emphatic assertion of the personality of man as distinct from, not absorbed in the Deity. This is no pantheistie... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Psalms 139:14

Psalms 139:14 Let us observe some of the mysteries which are involved in our own nature. I. We are made up of soul and body. Now if we did not know this so that we cannot deny it, what notion could our minds ever form of such a mixture of natures; and how should we ever succeed in making those who go only by abstract reason take in what we meant? II. The soul is not only one, and without parts, but moreover, as if by a great contradiction even in terms, it is in every part of the body. It is... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Psalms 139:1-24

Psalms 139:1-24 , another psalm of David to the chief musician. As David offers this prayer really unto God, declaring, first of all,O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me ( Psalms 139:1 ).Recognizing that God knows me completely and fully.You know my downsittings and my uprisings ( Psalms 139:2 ),Or you know my ups and my downs.you understand my thoughts afar off ( Psalms 139:2 ).The Hebrew is, "You understand my thoughts in their origins." Before I even think them, You know them. You... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Psalms 139:1-24

This psalm is entitled, a psalm of David. All the Versions agree with the Hebrew in this. It must be regarded as one of the sublimest representations of the Divinity, and particularly with regard to omniscience, ever composed. It also represents the moral perfections of God as the searcher of hearts, and the avenger of crime. It represents the divinity under all the grandeur of the Godhead, by the name Jehovah, associated with the enquiry, Whither shall I go from thy Spirit, or flee from thy... read more

Psalms 139:1-24O Lord, Thou hast searched me, and known me.God’s exhaustive knowledge of manThis lyric has always been the subject of praise. Aben Ezra said there was none like it in the five books. Lord Brougham spoke of it as “that singularly beautiful poem” Herder said that language utterly failed him in its exposition. Erskine of Llinlathen wanted this to be before him on his death-bed. The title ascribes it to David, an ascription corroborated by its originality and majesty and its... read more

Psalms 139:13-18For Thou hast possessed my reins: Thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb. God as the Creator of manI. He created man, who is a wonder to man’s self (verses 13, 14).II. He created man, who comes by the process of evolution (verses 15, 16). The oak is not less a Divine creation because it came out of the acorn, nor the acorn a less Divine production because it is composed of various substances of the earth: and man is not less the creation of God because he came by a process of... read more

Psalms 139:14I will praise Thee, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.Man adoring his MakerI. The expressive declaration--“I am fearfully and wonderfully made.”1. The wonders and mysteries of the human frame are little thought of, or understood, by the children of men; yet surely we may say, “The finger of God is here.” Our body is a congeries of wonders from the crown of the head to the sole of the foot. The different parts are so finely, delicately, and exquisitely made that it seems as if... read more
