The Son in the Psalms

evyaniy · Nov 7, 2023

Psalm 1 starts with the Holy Spirit describing the Son.

Psalm 1

(Spirit about Son)

1:1 Blessed is the Man
Who doesn’t walk in the counsel of the wicked,
nor stand in the way of sinners,
nor sit in the seat of scoffers;
1:2 but His delight is in YHVH's law.
On His Torah He meditates day and night.
1:3 He will be like a Tree planted by the streams of water,
that brings forth Its fruit in Its season,
Whose leaf also does not wither.
Whatever He does shall prosper.

Psalm 2 has the voices of the Father, Son and Spirit with the Son quoting what the Father said to Him and the Holy Spirit speaking to us at the end.

Psalm 2

(Spirit about the wicked)

2:1 Why do the nations rage,
and the peoples plot a vain thing?
2:2 The kings of the earth take a stand,
and the rulers take counsel together,
against YHVH, and against
His Anointed, (Mashiyach, Messiah) saying,
2:3 “Let’s break Their bonds apart,
and cast Their cords from us.”

(Spirit about Father concerning the wicked)

2:4 He who sits in the heavens will laugh.
'Adonay will have them in derision.
2:5 Then He will speak to them in His anger,
and terrify them in His wrath:

(Father about Son)

2:6 “Yet I have set My King on My holy hill of Zion.”

(Son quotes Father talking to Him)

2:7 I will tell of the decree.
YHVH said to Me, “You are My Son.
Today I have become Your Father.
2:8 Ask of Me, and I will give
the nations for Your inheritance,
the uttermost parts of the earth for Your possession.
2:9 You shall break them with a rod of iron.
You shall dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.”

(Spirit to people about Father and Son)

2:10 Now therefore be wise, you kings.
Be instructed, you judges of the earth.
2:11 Serve YHVH with fear,
and rejoice with trembling.
2:12 Kiss the Son, lest He be angry,
and you perish in the way,
for His wrath will soon be kindled.
Blessed are all those who take refuge in Him.

Psalm 3
A Psalm by David, when he fled from Absalom his son.

Many are those who rise up against Me.
3:2 Many there are who say of My Soul, (the cross)
“There is no salvation (Yĕshuw`ah) for Him in 'Elohiym.” (He became our Salvation)
Selah.
3:3 But You, YHVH, are a Shield around Me,
My Glory, and the One Who lifts up My head.
3:4 I cry to YHVH with My voice,
and He answers Me out of His holy hill.
Selah.

I awakened; for YHVH sustains Me.

who have set themselves against Me on every side.

Save Me, My 'Elohiym! (He trusts His Father to save Him)
For You have struck all of My enemies
on the cheek bone.
You have broken the teeth of the wicked.

Your blessing be on Your people.

ripping it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
7:3 YHVH, My 'Elohiym, if I have done this,
if there is iniquity in My hands,
7:4 if I have rewarded evil to him
who was at peace with Me
yes, I have delivered
him who without cause was My adversary,

by the Righteous 'Elohiym.

according to His righteousness,
and will sing praise to
the Name of YHVH Most High.

Seven Psalms so far with the Son praying and speaking and praising throughout. With the Holy Spirit speaking in a couple of them and the Father speaking and being quoted in Psalm 2.

Psalm 1: 1-2

evyaniy · Nov 7, 2023

Magenta said:

Yep. That would be the Son. And it is the Holy Spirit speaking about Him. How awesome to start the Psalms with that.

Thank you for the panel. Nice touch with the Spirit.

evyaniy said:

Thank you... I don't seem to have an updated working copy of that panel; it is from 2018, made by request.

I recently wondered about doing a panel for each Psalm... .

This was the first one I did .

Psalm 1:6
I think I need to change the font face...

evyaniy · Nov 7, 2023

Magenta said:

Oh wow. Dug deep in the archives for that one. Interesting you already had the Spirit present on the panel. That is one of the best things about the first 3 verses of Psalm 1 with the Holy Spirit speaking about the Son.

Your other recent panels have been spectacular with all the color and details. They are very striking and beautiful. Have to study them to see all that you put in each one.

evyaniy · Nov 7, 2023

Magenta said:

If you want to add panels to this thread for various Psalms, that would be wonderful. No pressure.

Was not going to do each Psalm in this thread. Only the ones with the Son speaking or about Him. Oh, guess that is most of them. It would be great to have your artwork with some of your favorite verses interspersed. There are so many great verses to choose from.

Maybe it could be a pleasant thread without the customary bickering and backbiting going on. Shhhhh. don't tell anyone. Don't want to attract the arguers. They may ignore the thread since they heard it all before.

Psalm 9 is the Son speaking to the Father

Psalm 9
For the Chief Musician. Set to “The Death of the Son.”
A Psalm by David.

(Son to Father)

9:1 I will give thanks to YHVH with My whole heart.
I will tell of all Your marvelous works.
9:2 I will be glad and rejoice in You.
I will sing praise to Your Name,
O Most High ('Elyon).
9:3 When My enemies turn back,
they stumble and perish in Your presence.
9:4 For You have maintained My just cause.

You sit on the throne judging righteously.
9:5 You have rebuked the nations.
You have destroyed the wicked.
You have blotted out their name forever and ever.
9:6 The enemy is overtaken by endless ruin.
The very memory of the cities which
You have overthrown has perished.

(Son about Father)

9:7 But YHVH reigns forever.
He has prepared His throne for judgment.
9:8 He will judge the world in righteousness.
(the foundations of His throne are Justice and Righteousness)
He will administer judgment to
the peoples in uprightness.
9:9 YHVH will also be a High Tower for the oppressed;
a High Tower in times of trouble.

(Son to Father about His people, believers)

9:10 Those who know Your Name will put their trust in You,
for You, YHVH, have not forsaken those who seek You.

(Son to His people, believers)

9:11 Sing praises to YHVH, Who dwells in Zion,
and declare among the people what He has done.
9:12 For He Who avenges blood remembers them.
He doesn’t forget the cry of the afflicted.

(Son to Father)

9:13 Have mercy on Me, YHVH.
See My affliction by those who hate Me,
and lift Me up from the gates of death;
9:14 that I may show forth all Your praise.
In the gates of the daughter of Zion,
I will rejoice in Your Salvation (Yĕshuw`ah).

(Son about the wicked and the Father's judgment)

9:15 The nations have sunk down in the pit that they made.
In the net which they hid, their own foot is taken.
9:16 YHVH has made Himself known.
He has executed judgment.
The wicked is snared by the work of his own hands.
Meditation. Selah.
9:17 The wicked shall be turned back to Sheol,
even all the nations that forget 'Elohiym.

(Son about His people)

9:18 For the needy
shall not always be forgotten,
nor the hope of the afflicted perish forever.

(Son to Father)

9:19 Arise, YHVH! Don’t let man prevail.
Let the nations be judged in Your sight.
9:20 Put them in fear, YHVH.
Let the nations know that they are only men.
Selah.

evyaniy · Nov 7, 2023

that is an awesome thing for the Son to say in verse 9:13 and 14. He again is asking to be raised from death to life that He may continue to praise His Father and show His praises.

lift Me up from the gates of death;
9:14 that I may show forth all Your praise.

evyaniy said:

Thank you. Some used to say they were too busy. LOL Oh, well, I am simplifying them more these days.
In the beginning I did not have very much to work with, as I had not collected much ephemera yet.
Here is another very early Psalm 1 panel (you can tell some of the very early ones by how monochromatic they are):

Of course I already have many Psalms panels, but I thought of going through all 150 Psalms
numerically and choosing verses I had not done yet. I tried counting how many there are but
it is difficult. But it looks like I have designed about 110 Psalms' panels since 2018.

evyaniy · Nov 8, 2023

Magenta said:

Now that is magenta. magenta white horse. magenta green trees. magenta land. You sure are using lots of colors now a days. The new panels are color explosions of soft complimentary colors. Plus the way you overlap things and have impressionistic qualities is beautiful. The creativity in them has blossomed over time. There is a huge difference between your early ones and what you are doing now. Spending your Sunday nights here has been beneficial for your art. (it was joke, it was only a joke)

please add whatever you want to the thread. liven it up and make it as colorful as you can. He is all about color and light and beauty. Since you have that many ready, it could be a record of your work and progression over time. get postin.

Psalm 11 is the Son

Psalm 11
For the Chief Musician. By David.

(Son speaking)

11:1 In YHVH, I take refuge.
How can you say to My soul,
“Flee as a bird to Your mountain!”
(He did not flee. He faced what the Father set before Him and trusted)
11:2 For, behold, the wicked bend their bows.
they set their arrows on the strings,
that they may shoot in darkness at
the Upright in heart. (He is the Upright in Heart)
11:3 If the foundations are destroyed,
what can the Righteous do?
11:4 YHVH is in His holy temple.
YHVH is on His throne in heaven.
His eyes observe.
His eyes examine the children of men.
11:5 YHVH examines the Righteous,
but the wicked and him who loves violence His soul hates.
(The Father hates those who love violence)
11:6 On the wicked He will rain blazing coals;
fire, sulfur, and scorching wind
shall be the portion of their cup.
11:7 For YHVH is Righteous.
He loves righteousness.
The Upright shall see His face.

evyaniy · Nov 8, 2023

worth repeating.

11:7 For YHVH is Righteous.
He loves righteousness.
