    Psalm119:1-8 "Aleph"

    Aleph is the first letter in the Hebrew alphabet. As a sign the upper yud represents the revealed word pointing toward the earth; on the other the lower yud represents the word in its return, thereby it encapsulates the verse,"So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it."(Is.55:11) In a general sense the vav, the diagonal stroke signifies the Spirit, the third office in Trinity.

    This is merely marginalia, a marginal note to the word of God with which the Spirit in order to instruct man in righteousness. has set the will of God in terms of the statutes, commandments and testimonies. Which ought not be any strange to him given that the truth in his inward parts. and it is what his heart enshrines. When the psalmist says,"I wash my hands in innocence, and go about your altar, LORD,/proclaiming aloud your praise and telling of all your wonderful deeds."(26:6-7-NIV) He not only creates a proper atmosphere for devotion,- by washing his hands clean but also declares the loving kindness of God. Faith with works involves confession, restitution, obedience to the revealed word (statutes) and declaration.

    This first section we have a colloquy between the exterior world with its analogous interior world.

    What does truth tell the psalmist? "Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of theLord./Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart."

    How does the soul respond? "They also do no iniquity: they walk in his ways./Thou hast commanded us to keep thy precepts diligently. The soul is addressing Christ the word become flesh, 'Thou hast commanded'

    The v.8 serves as a bridge to the next section: "I will keep thy statutes: O forsake me not utterly."
