Psalm 119

"This wonderful psalm, from its great length, helps us to wonder at the immensity of Scripture. From its keeping to one subject it helps us to adore the unity of Scripture; for it is but one. Yet, from the many turns, it gives to the same thought, it helps you to see the variety of Scripture.... Some have said that in it there is an absence of variety, but that is merely the observation of those who have not studied it. I have weighed each word and looked at each syllable with lengthened meditation, and I bear witness that this sacred song has no tautology in it, but is charmingly varied from beginning to end. Its variety is that of a kaleidoscope: from a few objects, a boundless variation is produced. In the kaleidoscope, you look once, and there is a strangely beautiful form. You shift the glass a very little, and another shape, equally delicate and beautiful, is before your eyes. So it is here." (Charles Spurgeon)

Ps. One Nineteen is long! It is easy for our minds to wander but like Charles Spurgeon, we find that in the wandering, we begin to wonder at the immensity of God's word. Our hope is that through this little study you find the room you need to wander, and as you wander you will be filled with wonder from beginning to the end. We have designed the pages of this book to have space for you to doodle, process, and write little notes to remember what the Holy Spirit leads you into each time you read it!
