Hills Looks Mountains Shaking Smoke Touch Touches Toucheth Trembles Trembleth
104:32 He looketh on the earth, and it trembleth: he toucheth the hills, and they {r} smoke.
(r) God's merciful face gives strength to the earth, but his severe countenance burns the mountains.
104:32 He looketh - This is a farther illustration of God's powerful providence: as when he affords his favour to creatures, they live and thrive, so on the contrary, one angry look or touch of his upon the hills or earth, makes them tremble and smoke, as Sinai did when God appeared in it.
104:31-35 Man's glory is fading; God's glory is everlasting: creatures change, but with the Creator there is no variableness. And if mediation on the glories of creation be so sweet to the soul, what greater glory appears to the enlightened mind, when contemplating the great work of redemption! There alone can a sinner perceive ground of confidence and joy in God. While he with pleasure upholds all, governs all, and rejoices in all his works, let our souls, touched by his grace, meditate on and praise him.
