In biblical context, being "shaken" often refers to being disturbed or overthrown by life's trials or adversities. The assurance that the righteous will not be shaken is a recurring theme in Scripture, reflecting God's protection and support. <a href="/psalms/55-22.htm">Psalm 55:22</a> echoes this sentiment, encouraging believers to cast their burdens on the Lord, who will sustain them. The imagery of an unshakable foundation is also seen in Jesus' parable of the wise and foolish builders in <a href="/matthew/7-24.htm">Matthew 7:24-27</a>, where the house built on the rock withstands storms. This stability is not due to human strength but is rooted in a life aligned with God's will and purposes.<p><b>the righteous man will be remembered forever.</b><br>The concept of being "remembered forever" speaks to the enduring legacy and honor of the righteous. In the ancient Near Eastern culture, memory and legacy were highly valued, often associated with one's name and deeds being preserved through generations. This phrase suggests that the righteous leave a lasting impact, not only in human memory but also in God's eternal record. <a href="/proverbs/10-7.htm">Proverbs 10:7</a> states, "The memory of the righteous is a blessing," reinforcing the idea that their influence persists beyond their lifetime. This eternal remembrance can also be seen as a type of Christ, whose righteous life and sacrificial death are eternally commemorated and celebrated by believers. The promise of eternal remembrance offers hope and encouragement to live a life of integrity and faithfulness.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_righteous_man.htm">The Righteous Man</a></b><br>This refers to an individual who lives in accordance with God's laws and principles.
