Psalm 119 celebrates the unsurpassed value of the Scriptures. In this psalm, we journey with one whose mind was saturated with the words of God. The beauty of Psalm 119 includes how it’s arranged. The author takes the twenty-two letters of the Hebrew alphabet—from aleph to taw—and expresses himself to God. At the same time, the psalm provides instruction for the people. The psalmist’s delight is expressed in verse 97, where he summarizes his sentiments: “Oh, how I love your law!” The psalm highlights several advantages of engagement with the Bible: “Your commands . . . make me wiser than my enemies. I have more insight than all my teachers . . . . I have more understanding than the elders, for I obey your precepts” (vv. 98-100). Not only are the words of Scripture sweet to the taste, they strengthen and enrich our lives and help us to honor God.
