Verse 5
3. The holiness of Yahweh 93:5
In contrast to Baal’s morally corrupt sanctuaries, the Lord’s house was holy. What transpired in the temple contrasted strongly with what took place where the Canaanites worshipped their god. This behavior reflected the character of the two deities. God’s holiness guarantees the trustworthy nature of His words. Unblemished holiness manifests itself in unlimited power. [Note: See Allen, Rediscovering Prophecy, pp. 55-68.]
This psalm teaches the reader that God’s power demonstrates that He is alive and active. Consequently, everyone should submit to Him and obey His commands.
