Psalms113:3
1. Canonical hours abolished.
2. Holy places abolished —since we cannot be always in them.
3. Every time and place consecrated.
Verses 5-6.
1. The greatness of God as viewed from below, ver. 5.
2. The condescension of God as viewed from above, ver. 6.
(a) In creation.
(b) In the Incarnation.
(c) In redemption. —G. R.
Verses 5-6. The unparalleled condescension of God.
1. None are so great, and therefore able to stoop so low.
2. None are so good, and therefore so willing to stoop.
3. None are so wise, and therefore so able to "behold" or know the needs of little things.
4. None are infinite, and therefore able to enter into minutiae and sympathize with the smallest grief: Infinity is seen in the minute as truly as in the immense.
