Good Morning Yamon Ki Yesepar; Psalms 39:2: “I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, even from good; and my sorrow was stirred.” The literal meaning is quite clear, David is really trying to keep his tongue in check. He fully recognizes how his speech or speaking out could result in sin. Thus he
Good Morning Yamon Ki Yesepar; Deuteronomy 10:20: “You shall fear the Lord your God; you shall serve Him and cling to Him, and you shall swear by His name.” In past studies I looked at what it meant to “fear God.” I also looked at the word for “serve.” Here is a third command to
Good Morning Yamon Ki Yesepar; Psalms 119:18: “Open my eyes that I may behold wonderful things from your law.” The word “law” is Torah. During David’s time that was his Bible, the Scripture, the Word of God. Today we have a complete Old and New Testament. So quite literally David is asking that God opens
Good Evening Yamon Ki Yesepar; I Samuel 17:40: And he took his staff in his hand, and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook…” If you have ever taken a class in creative writing, you know this is very poor story telling. We have a real good example of foreshadowing, with David picking
Good Morning Yamon Ki Yesepar; Isaiah 53:5: “But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.” He was wounded for our transgressions.

Good Morning Yamon Ki Yesepar; Psalms 119:11: “Your word have I have I hidden in my heart, that I might no sin against you.” “Trifles light as air, are to the jealous confirmation proofs as truth of holy writ.” Iago –– Othello – Shakespeare. This is one of those verses you hear so often but
Good Morning Yamon Ki Yesepar; Psalm 24:7: “Lift up your heads, O gates, and be lifted up, on ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in.” The pashat seems clear. David is picturing God as a conquering king returning from battle and passing through the gates of the city to his palace. But,

Good Morning Yamon Ki Yesepar and Nevim Arith Hayomim: Luke 9:55: “But he turned and rebuked them and said, ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of.” I have sat through a number of Bible studies and Sunday School classes where a verse similar to this is read and someone raises their hand
Good Morning Yamon Ki Yesepar; Psalms 17:3 “Thou has proved mine heart; thou hast visited me in the night.” The above passage was taken from the KJV. It translates the phrase “thou hast visited me in the night as the past tense. I checked through every translation I could find and practically all of them
