Psalms 118 is the
middle chapter of the entire Bible?

118, Psalms 117 is the shortest chapter in the Bible?

Psalms 119 is the longest chapter in the Bible?
-
That there are
594 chapters each before and following Psalms 118?

That if you add
up all the chapters except Psalms 118, you get a total of 1188
chapters.

the entire Bible.

The central verse
should have a fairly important message don't you think? "IT IS
BETTER TO TAKE REFUGE IN THE LORD THAN TO TRUST IN MAN."
You may say that all
of the above is simply coincidental. But how amazing that directly in
the center of all of God's Word is a verse that sums up what the world
needs so desperately to do .... put our faith in God instead of our
abilities. Submission to God is the first step in having a wonderful
relationship with Him and His creation. |
