Today, we’re diving deeper into our series on “How to Study the Bible.” It’s not just about the “how,” but also the “why,” “when,” and even “how not” to study the Bible. Did you know that this Psalm is the longest chapter in the Bible and is divided into 22 sections, each corresponding to a letter of the Hebrew alphabet? We’ll focus on the 10th letter, Yod, the smallest letter in the Hebrew alphabet, and see how it plays a big role in this segment. It’s all about the contrast between God’s greatness and our smallness, beautifully illustrated through the verses.
In the episode I mentioned a little surprise coming at the end, but I decided to create a special episode about that…so look for that episode coming soon!
If you’d like to read the Hebrew/English version…

Dwelling in the Word and letting the Word dwell in us richly is different than reading the Bible or reading a devotional with Bible passages. Let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly and return the favor by dwelling in the Word – not “doing” Bible study, not simply reading – but moving into the Word with heart, soul, mind, and strength. It’s being intentional in making a shift from treating the Word of God like a self-help book to letting it dwell in us as the living Word of God that it is.
