December 14, 2012 – Psalm 108

I picture the areas in Israel as being items that God uses as everyday items.  Moab is my washbowl, toss your sandals on Edom.  We know God is above all, but it has an editorial cartoon feel when you think of it like this.  I always got the same sense when you hear God will put them as a footstool.  When you read imagery like this you realize that they were trying to get a point across that is difficult to do with mere words and a picture is worth a thousand.  The same thing is done with the editorial cartoons in the paper each day.  Think about the article that would have to be written to make the point that is made in a glance at the cartoon.  This is not a new technique and it fits in line with Christ and his parables and images to describe God’s love or Heaven, things so beyond us.
