Цитаты из Танаха к Тегилим 19:2

He illuminates the earth [and provides light] for those who dwell on it, with compassion;⁴God causes light to appear in stages, gradually. This is an act of great compassion for if He made it appear all at once, we would be overwhelmed and blinded by its brightness.— Avudraham and in His goodness renews every day, continually,⁵God is not a far-off observer of a mechanism which He created and ignores, but a Living Ruler, Who guides the universe and continually maintains it. the work of creation. How many are Your works, Adonoy; You made them all with wisdom, the earth is full of Your possessions.⁶Lit., Your acquisitions: See Genesis 14:22. The King Who alone is exalted from then,⁷I.e., before Creation, See p. 9: God was King before all creatures were created. Who is praised and glorified and uplifted, from the beginning of time.⁸I.e., after Creation. Ever since Creation, God has been praised and glorified by His creatures. Eternal God, in Your abundant mercy, have compassion on us, Master, Who is our strength, Rock, Who is our stronghold Shield, of our deliverance, [Be] a stronghold for us. The blessed Almighty, great in knowledge, prepared and made the rays of the sun. [The] Good [One] created [everything] for the glory of His Name:⁹See Isaiah 43:7: “All that is called by My Name, I have created for My glory.”—Avudraham the luminaries He set around His strength (His throne). The chiefs of His hosts are holy beings,¹⁰“Holy beings” are angels. In Hebrew, the word for angels means messenger, and includes all the instruments of Divine purpose, whether in human form, or in the forces of nature.—Kuzari the exalters of Shadai¹¹A name of God (Genesis 17:1; 35:11; 43:14, etc.) which refers to His setting boundaries and limits throughout creation. continually recount the glory of the Almighty and His holiness.

Blessed are You, G·d, Our L·rd, King of the Universe who forms light and creates darkness. Who makes peace and creates everything. He Who illuminates the earth and those who dwell upon it – with compassion, and with His goodness He renews daily the work of creation. How great are your deeds Oh, G·d – all of them You have done with wisdom – the world is full of Your possessions. The lofty King, alone from before [time]. The Praiseworthy One, and the Glorified and the Exalted – from the days of the [beginning of] world. G·d of the world with Your abundant mercy have mercy upon us. Master of our power, the Rock of our Refuge, the Shield of our salvation, Refuge for us, Blessed G·d, Great in knowledge, Who prepared and Made the Lights of Sun. Good One, You created it for the honor of Your Name. Luminaries were placed around His Might. In the corners are the Holy hosts, that glorify the Almighty. At all times they tell of the Honor of G·d and His Holiness. You are Blessed, L·rd, our G·d in the Heavens above and upon the land below it. Upon all the praise of Your handiwork and the luminaries of light – that You formed – they will glorify You forever.

For the director of music. A psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge. They have no speech, they use no words; no sound is heard from them. Yet their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world. In the heavens God has pitched a tent for the sun. It is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, like a champion rejoicing to run his course. It rises at one end of the heavens and makes its circuit to the other; nothing is deprived of its warmth. The law of the Lord is perfect, refreshing the soul. The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple. The precepts of the Lord are right, giving joy to the heart. The commands of the Lord are radiant, giving light to the eyes. The fear of the Lord is pure, enduring forever. The decrees of the Lord are firm, and all of them are righteous. They are more precious than gold, than much pure gold; they are sweeter than honey, than honey from the honeycomb. By them your servant is warned; in keeping them there is great reward. But who can discern their own errors? Forgive my hidden faults. Keep your servant also from willful sins; may they not rule over me. Then I will be blameless, innocent of great transgression. May these words of my mouth and this meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer.
