Salmos 33:15

15 El, que modela el corazón de cada uno de ellos; El, que todas las obras de ellos entiende.

Salmos 33:15 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 33:15

He fashioneth their hearts alike
The Lord is the former and fashioner of the heart, spirit, or soul of man, even of all hearts and spirits; whence he is called the Father of spirits, ( Hebrews 12:9 ) ; see ( Zechariah 12:1 ) ; and he is the former of them alike; which seems to intimate as if all seals were alike, as they are made by the Lord; and it may be the difference there appears to be between them afterwards, nay be owing to the make and constitution of their bodies, to their education, and different situation, circumstances, and advantages in life, whereby the hearts of some may be more opened and enlarged than others. Some render it "together", or "altogether" F7; which must not be understood of time, as if they were all made at once, but of equality; the one was made by him as well as the other; he is the fashioner of one and all of them, every whit of them; they are wholly fashioned by him, and all that is in them, all the powers and faculties of the soul; and by him only, and not by the instrumentality of another; for souls are created, not generated; they are produced out of nothing, and not out of pre-existent matter, as bodies; parents contribute somewhat to the bodies of their children, but not anything to their souls. God only "is the God of the spirits of all flesh", ( Numbers 16:22 ) ; some translate the word "singly" F8; one by one, one after another in the several ages of time; for he continues to fashion them, and is always doing it; see ( Zechariah 12:1 ) . And he forms the hearts of his own people anew for himself, for his own glory; he forms Christ in them, and every grace of his Spirit; he forms them into one, and knits and unites them together in love, and makes them like to one another; for as face answers to face in water, so do the hearts and experiences of the saints one to another, ( Proverbs 27:19 ) ; all which he does wholly and alone; and since he fashions the hearts of all men in every sense, he must know them, which is the design of this expression; he knows the hearts of wicked men, and all the wickedness that is in them; he knows the hearts of good men, the worst that is in them, and also the best, which he himself has put there;

he considereth all their works;
the works of evil men, not only their more open ones, but their more secret ones, and will bring them into judgment; and the works of good men, even their good works, which he will remember and reward in a way of grace.

Salmos 33:15 In-Context

13 El SEÑOR mira desde los cielos; El ve a todos los hijos de los hombres.
14 Desde el lugar de su morada El observa a todos los habitantes de la tierra;
15 El, que modela el corazón de cada uno de ellos; El, que todas las obras de ellos entiende.
16 El rey no se salva por gran ejército; ni es librado el valiente por la mucha fuerza.
17 Falsa esperanza de victoria es el caballo, ni con su mucha fuerza puede librar.
