In the biblical context, it reflects the understanding that all creation, not just humanity, relies on God for sustenance. This is consistent with the creation narrative in Genesis, where God is depicted as the sustainer of life. The phrase also echoes the sentiment found in <a href="/psalms/104-27.htm">Psalm 104:27-28</a>, where all creatures look to God for provision. It highlights the trust and expectation that God will meet the needs of His creation, a theme that runs throughout the Psalms.<p><b>and You give them their food</b><br>This part of the verse underscores God's role as the provider of daily needs. In the historical and cultural context of ancient Israel, agriculture was central to life, and the dependence on God for rain and harvest was a constant reality. The provision of food is a recurring theme in Scripture, seen in the manna provided to the Israelites in the wilderness (Exodus 16) and in Jesus' teaching on prayer, where He instructs His followers to ask for their "daily bread" (<a href="/matthew/6-11.htm">Matthew 6:11</a>). This phrase also points to God's faithfulness and generosity, as He provides not just for the righteous but for all His creation.<p><b>in season</b><br>The phrase "in season" indicates God's perfect timing and order in creation. It reflects the agricultural cycles that were crucial to the livelihood of the people in biblical times. This timing is seen as part of God's divine plan, where He orchestrates the seasons and ensures that the earth yields its produce at the right time. <a href="/ecclesiastes/3.htm">Ecclesiastes 3:1</a> speaks to this divine timing, stating that there is a season for everything. This concept is also prophetic, pointing to the ultimate fulfillment of God's promises in His perfect timing, as seen in the coming of Christ and the establishment of His kingdom.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/d/david.htm">David</a></b><br>The author of <a href="/bsb/psalms/145.htm">Psalm 145</a>, King David, is expressing his praise and acknowledgment of God's providence and care for all creation.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/g/god.htm">God</a></b><br>The central figure in this verse, God is depicted as the provider and sustainer of life, meeting the needs of all His creation.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/c/creation.htm">Creation</a></b><br>The "all" in this verse refers to all living beings who depend on God for sustenance.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/d/dependence_on_god.htm">Dependence on God</a></b><br>Recognize that all creation is dependent on God for sustenance.
