The "voice" refers to the silent testimony of the heavens and the earth, which declare the glory of God without words. This concept is echoed in <a href="/romans/1-20.htm">Romans 1:20</a>, where Paul states that God's invisible qualities are clearly seen in creation, leaving humanity without excuse. The idea of a universal proclamation aligns with the Great Commission in <a href="/matthew/28-19.htm">Matthew 28:19</a>, where the gospel is to be preached to all nations. The psalmist underscores that God's revelation is not limited to a specific people or region but is accessible to all humanity.<p><b>their words to the ends of the world</b><br>The "words" here symbolize the message conveyed by the natural world, which reaches every corner of the earth. This reflects the omnipresence of God's communication through creation, as seen in <a href="/acts/14-17.htm">Acts 14:17</a>, where God did not leave Himself without witness. The phrase suggests that the testimony of creation is as far-reaching as the ends of the world, indicating the comprehensive nature of God's revelation. This universality prefigures the spread of the gospel, as seen in <a href="/colossians/1-23.htm">Colossians 1:23</a>, where Paul speaks of the gospel being proclaimed to every creature under heaven.<p><b>In the heavens He has pitched a tent for the sun</b><br>This imagery of God pitching a tent for the sun highlights His sovereignty and creative power. The "tent" suggests a temporary dwelling, indicating the sun's daily journey across the sky. This reflects the ancient Near Eastern understanding of the cosmos, where the sun was seen as a divine entity traversing the heavens. The sun's regularity and reliability point to God's order and faithfulness, as seen in <a href="/genesis/8-22.htm">Genesis 8:22</a>, where God promises the continuity of day and night. The sun is also a type of Christ, the "Sun of Righteousness" in <a href="/malachi/4-2.htm">Malachi 4:2</a>, symbolizing Jesus' role as the light of the world, bringing life and truth to humanity.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/d/david.htm">David</a></b><br>Traditionally attributed as the author of <a href="/bsb/psalms/19.htm">Psalm 19</a>, David was the second king of Israel and a man after God's own heart.

But neither of these seems very appropriate here. The verse wants <span class= "ital">sound </span>or <span class= "ital">voice, </span>and words of this intention actually appear in the LXX., Vulg., Symmachus, Jerome, and the Syriac.<p>The use which St. Paul makes of these words (<a href="/romans/10-18.htm" title="But I say, Have they not heard? Yes truly, their sound went into all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.">Romans 10:18</a>) is as natural as striking. The march of truth has always been compared to the spread of light.

It is much disputed what "their <span class="accented">line"</span> means. The word used, <span class="accented">qav</span> (<span class="hebrew">&#x5e7;&#x5b7;&#x5d5;</span>), means, ordinarily, a "measuring-line" (<a href="/ezekiel/47-3.htm">Ezekiel 47:3</a>: <a href="/zechariah/1-16.htm">Zechariah 1:16</a>, etc.), whence it comes to have the further sense of a terminus or boundary; that which the measuring-line marks out. It is also thought to have signified an architect's rule; and, hence, anything regulative, as a decree, precept, or law (see <a href="/isaiah/28-10.htm">Isaiah 28:10</a>). The LXX. translated it in this place by <span class="greek">&#x3c6;&#x3b8;&#x1f79;&#x3b3;&#x3b3;&#x3bf;&#x3c2;</span>, "a musical sound;" and Dr. Kay supposes "the regulative chord," or "key-note." to be intended. Perhaps "decree" would be in this place the best rendering, since it would suit the "words" (<span class="accented">minim</span>) of the second clause. The "decree" of the heavens is one proclaiming the glory of God, and the duty of all men to worship him. <span class="cmt_word">And their words to the end of the world</span>. Though they have neither speech nor language, nor any articulate words, yet they have "words" in a certain sense. <span class="accented">Millim is</span> said to be used of thoughts just shaping themselves into language, but not yet uttered (Kay). <span class="cmt_word">In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun</span>. God has made the heavens the sun's dwelling-place, the place where he passes the day. There is, perhaps, a tacit allusion to the Shechinah, which dwelt in the tabernacle of the congregation: <span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/psalms/19-4.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div><span class="word">their voice</span><br /><span class="heb">&#1511;&#1463;&#1493;&#1468;&#1464;&#1431;&#1501;</span> <span class="translit">(qaw&#183;w&#257;m)</span><br /><span class="parse">Noun - masculine singular construct &#124;
