Psalm 114

The release of an individual from slavery was not unusual in ancient times. But that is probably not true for an entire ethnic group. Except for Israel. In verses 5 and 6 of Psalm 114 the writer asks three questions to creation. All three have the same theme; why did you withdraw from blocking Israel? The Red Sea, the Jordan River, every mountain and hill allowed Israel to pass by; unhindered by them. Why? Because the God of creation traveled with Israel. Nothing in the natural world is foolish enough to set itself up against God. We can learn a few lessons from the world God created before us.
