PSALM 119 is a Psalm of praise and reverence for the Word of God. Although the author is not noted in the original, it is generally attributed to the Psalmist David.
At 176 verses, it is the longest Psalm, as well as the longest chapter in the Bible.
In the original Hebrew, it is broken into twenty-two sections of eight verses-each verse beginning with the same Hebrew letter.
In the King James Version, the translation from Hebrew to English lost the acrostic qualities, however each Hebrew letter is generally noted in most Bibles as a heading for each section.
The Word of God is referred to in almost every verse, and is often used to show the importance of the Word.
Please enjoy these brief thoughts-it was my goal to take Psalm 119 verse by verse, and reflect on some aspect of God's Word. I have broken it into the individual twenty-two sections of eight verses, to make searching easier though the table of contents. Use it as a devotional, a daily reflection, or simply a deeper look at this wonderful Psalm of praise.
