The psalmist almost sounds as if he is in love! What grandeur there is in the lofty images describing the height and depth and width of God’s magnificent creation: the vast stretch of the heavens, fire and flame as messengers, boundaries so broad that neither mountain nor valley can cross....
O Creator God, how wonderful and manifold are all your works! Draw me so into love with you that I give you my all in service and devotion. Amen.
At this point in Job’s story, God has heard questions from Job and long-winded moralizing by three of Job’s friends, who have pronounced that his misfortunes are divine judgment. Now God has heard enough and declares that God’s perspective is superior to theirs. God has been there from the beginning, as the psalmist reiterates, so no one should claim to know God’s mind or speak on God’s behalf. Even Jesus, the divine Son of God, yields to his heavenly Father. Hebrews tells us that Jesus made appeals to God as the ultimate high priest and thereby became the source of salvation for those who obey him. In the Gospel reading, Jesus specifies that his approaching act of submission and service will allow him to become a ransom for us.
