Psalm 119:1-88

This longest chapter in the Bible represents Hebrew poetry at its highest, extolling the word and law of God in almost every verse. There are 22 octets of verses, with each group of eight verses beginning with the relevant Hebrew letter of the alphabet. There are 22 letters in their alphabet, Aleph to Tav, so each of the first eight verses begin with Aleph.

Jesus did not come to abolish God’s law, which reveals His heart and His ways, so it is good for us to search and seek to understand His law.

Open my eyes, that I may see Wondrous things from Your law.
- Psalm 119:18 NKJV
