Psalms 19:4-6

4 Their 1line has gone out through all the earth, And their utterances to the end of the world. In them He has 2placed a tent for the sun,
5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber; It rejoices as a strong man to run his course.
6 Its 3rising is from one end of the heavens, And its circuit to the other end of them; And there is nothing hidden from its heat.

Psalms 19:4-6 Meaning and Commentary

To the chief Musician, a Psalm of David. This psalm was penned by David, and inscribed to the chief musician, as others, to be used in public service, and was designed for Gospel times, as the subject of it shows; which is first, not an account of the light of nature, and then of the law of Moses, but of the Gospel of Christ; and especially as ministered in the times of the apostles, as a citation out of it in Romans 10:18, makes clear.
