Psalm 19:8

Psalm 19:8
'The commands of the Lord are radiant
Making the eyes light up.'

I'm guessing based on Ps 13:3 that this verse could be taken two ways.

The HCSB takes the words as though the Word of God causes the reader
to be happy. Amen! A heart turned toward God will rejoice to be His.
Our happiness will be founded on something solid, not flimsy like the
happenings around us.

But Ps 13:3 would make us think that this phrase points to the
brightness of the eyes refering to life. Again, amen! There is nothing
so dull as dead eyes; there is also nothing so dead as dead spiritual
eyes. Our eyes apart from the Word of God are dead, blind, and without
any light.

God the Father, give us light that we may see.
God the Son, give us light that others may see.
God the Spirit, give us light that Your people may rejoice!

Go to God's Word that you may have enlightened eyes.

Rejoicing together with you,
Pastor Greg
