0:00.0	Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble, and I'm your host for the Bible Recap.
0:12.6	We are 150 days in, and today we read the longest chapter in the Bible.
0:18.2	You probably either knew it was the longest chapter or at least hoped it was. It's even longer than some entire books of the Bible. You probably either knew it was the longest chapter or at least
0:20.8	hoped it was. It's even longer than some entire books of the Bible. And it's the center
0:26.5	chapter of the Bible. This song is written as a Hebrew acrostic poem where each of the 22
0:31.8	sections starts with the subsequent letter of the Hebrew alphabet, and each of the eight verses
0:36.3	within each section starts with that letter as well. For us, and each of the eight verses within each section starts with
0:38.3	that letter as well. For us, that would be like eight verses that start with the letter A,
0:43.5	then eight verses that start with the letter B, and so forth. And as a former songwriter, this
0:48.2	intimidates me. This song was a labor of love. No one knows who wrote it, but a lot of people

1:00.6	This kind of detailed, demanding songwriting isn't done in a half-hearted manner. Not only does
1:05.9	he love the Word of God, but he wants to love it even more. He's not a perfect man. He even ends the Psalm by saying
1:12.2	he's a lost sheep who has gone astray and asked God to come find him. But in all this, he shows a deep
1:18.5	understanding of God and his character. In fact, the Psalm points out at least seven primary
1:24.1	praiseworthy attributes of God and his character. They are, righteousness,
1:28.7	trustworthiness, truthfulness, faithfulness, unchangeableness, eternality, and light.
1:34.6	In verses 9 through 11, he shows us how possessing a heart-level knowledge of God and his word
1:39.7	keeps him walking in nearness and obedience to God. Unfortunately, we're helpless to change our own hearts.
1:46.6	Fortunately, this chapter also displays God as the active agent of wisdom giving and heart change.
1:52.5	For example, in verse 18, he says, open my eyes. In verse 27, he says, make me understand.
