Psalms

Chapter 84

{David wrote this Psalm about moving to spiritual maturity}
1a {Title} To the Chief Muscian . . . Gittith

1b A Psalm {mizmowr}
for the sons of Korah.

1c~~How loved are your dwelling places,
O Jehovah/God of the armies!

{Note: The dwelling places here refer to places where the Word of God is taught.}

2~~My soul longed {intensive love}
and even yearned
  {motivation word - positive volition}
for the courts of Jehovah/God {place of doctrinal instruction}.

My right lobe {soul - the real YOU - the place of mental activity}
and my flesh {body}
rejoice over the Living 'El/God.

3~~Therefore, the sparrow
  {the most helpless of birds - analogy to believers}
also has found a house
  {represents security - the house of the Lord is where security
  resides}.

And the swallow a nest for herself,
where she may lay her young.

Even your altars
  {place of right pastor and teaching of doctrine},
O Jehovah/God of the armies/hosts,
my King
  {emphasis on the humanity of Christ - emphasis on Jewish
  battleground royalty}
and my 'Elohiym/Godhead
  {emphasis on the deity of Christ - together is the hypostatic union
  of Christ}.

4~~Happinesses
  {+H - spiritual, material, associations, historical impact, etc.} . . .
to those who dwell in Your house!
  {consistent function of GAP, take in doctrine daily}

They {mature believers} are ever praising You.

Selah
  {Selah means singers rest and instruments play on -
  it is a picture of you resting while the Grace of God continues on}

5~~Happinesses . . . to the man {mature believer}
whose power is vested in You
  {doctrine resident in the soul of the mature believer}.

In whose 'right lobe' . . . {are}
the 'Ways'/'highways to maturity' {Zion}! (Ultra-SuperGrace)

6~~Passing through the valley of tears
  {Baca -after you crack the maturity barrier it is a difficult phase -
  intensive testing for spiritual advancement - no man's land - place
  of testing},
they make it to the well {ultra- super-grace}.

The early rain also covers it with blessings.

7~~They advance from power {super-grace A and super-grace B}
to power {ultra-super-grace},
Every one of them is seen in Zion
by Elohiym/Godhead {means they receive the support of God}.

8~~O Jehovah/God . . . Elohiym/Godhead of the army,
hear my prayer!
Listen, O Elohiym/Godhead of Jacob! Selah.

9~~Behold our shield,
O Elohiym/Godhead {doctrine resident in the soul},
and therefore guard with respect your appointed ones.

10~~For a day in Your courts {in bible class}
is better than a thousand outside {in revisionism}.
I would rather be at the threshold
of the house of my Elohiym/Godhead
  {a doorman at the house of Jehovah/God},
than dwell in the tents of evil.

11~~For Jehovah/God . . . Elohiym/Godhead
is a sun {a blessing in context - warm and energy}
and shield {security provision of logistical grace}.
Jehovah/God gives grace and promotion.
He will NOT hold back good from those who walk with HONOR.

12~~O Jehovah/God of the army,
happinesses to the man who depends on YOU!

{Note: This Psalm is the Psalm of growing to maturity. It is a good prelude to Philippians Chapter 3, and we continue to grow in grace, through no matter what happens in this life.}
