Psalms 119:90 "Within the Generation"

Psalms 119:90

“Your faithfulness continues through all generations; you established the earth, and it endures.”

It is interesrting when read in Korean because the theme of this seem more than just 'all generations.' It seems that in the Korean version it referrs to a generation in a more personal level.

The faith that has held my parents holds me as well. In this Psalms 119, the notion of 'word, law, command, statut, decree and proof' are mentioned in almost every verse. But interestingly enough in this segment, the recurring them concerning God's commands is not apparent. Instead the base or the grounding them in this verse is portrayed in the phrase, "Your faithfulness continues through all generations..."

This is connected to the later part of "...you established the earth and it endures." The funny part is that in the first parts of ever verse of chapter 119, it starts out by explains what is happening or has happened and the later part usually explains the proof. Or more simply the verses are composed in two parts. One augmenting the other in a small little dance.

Putting all this into a few sentences, I could say that, God has hope in us (Wow I know o_O). Thats why the earth is here and that it is still here, because He still has hope in us and our future generation.

Thank God for my pedigree. And thank God for all the new generations that are starting now. Thank God for keeping us.
