Psalms 107:24 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 107:24

These see the works of the Lord
In creation, the sea itself, its flux and reflux; the creatures in it, fishes of various forms and sizes: and in providence, in preserving ships and men in the most imminent danger, and even to a miracle; sometimes causing the wind to change or to subside in a moment, whereby deliverance is wrought.

And his wonders in the deep;
the strange and wonderful creatures that are in the deep waters of the sea, and to be seen nowhere else; and the amazing appearances of divine providence, in delivering when in the greatest distress, and none at hand to help, and all hope of salvation gone.

Psalms 107:24 In-Context

22 Let them bring songs of thanksgiving as their sacrifice. Let them tell in joyful songs what he has done.

23 Those who sail on the sea in ships, who do business on the high seas,

24 have seen what the LORD can do, the miracles he performed in the depths of the sea.

25 He spoke, and a storm began to blow, and it made the waves rise high.

26 The sailors aboard ship rose toward the sky. They plunged into the depths. Their courage melted in [the face of] disaster.
