I saw the heaven made by your fingers, the moon and the stars you set, and I said, What is the son of man that you care about him? You made him smaller than an angel and crowned him with glory and honor. (Psalm 8:3/5) In the wilderness of Bethlehem, the night is shrouded in silence. A bright full moon has been lifted by the distant blue mountains, and the stars are embedded in the deep blue sky. The silver moonlight sprinkled on the earth, and it was quiet. David, a little shepherd boy, lay on the grass with his head in his hands, looking up at the vast sky and the deep night sky, with ripples in his heart. Unlike Wang Wei, David was secretly sad in the bright moonlight. "The voice is too light for anyone to hear except my comrade-in-arms Mingyue"; Unlike Li Bai, who was sad alone in the moon frost, "Looking up, I found that it was moonlight, and then sinking, I suddenly remembered home." He praised God's glory and praised God's actions, and experienced God's power and understood God's wisdom from the vastness of the universe and the wonders of nature. Facing such a great god, he couldn't help crying, "Lord, our Lord, how beautiful your name is in the whole earth!" You show your glory to the sky. " David's lofty realm, transcendental vision and brilliant thinking are beyond the reach of ancient people in China. Not only that, but he also knows that man is humble and insignificant in God's wonderful work, so he can't help asking himself, "What is man?" "What do you care about his world?" David uses two "people" here, which has two meanings. The former refers to "one person, a perishable person", while the latter refers to "all people, human beings" (Hebrew original meaning). It can be seen that David knows human nature very well. People are "perishable". What is such a "person"? He repeatedly asked himself, from the individual to the whole, from "self" to human beings. Many years later, David gave an answer: "As for the world, his days are like grass." He is as lush as a flower in the field. When the wind blows, there is nothing. He doesn't know him in his original place. ""The lower class is really empty, and the upper class is also false. Put it on the balance and it will float. They are * * * lighter than air "(poem103:15; 62:9)。 The prophet Isaiah also had the same view: "Look, everything is like a drop in a bucket, and it is also regarded as dust on the balance" (Isaiah 40: 15). They are all people with great vision and high realm. They tell people exactly the same thing: the world is as empty as flowers and plants and as small as dust. What is a person? As far as time is concerned, how short a person's day is, "the years passed are like a sigh" and "they flew away inadvertently" (Ps. 90:9/ 10), or "clouds that appear for a few hours and disappear" (4:14 each); As far as space is concerned, the existence of human beings is so insignificant that "everything is like a drop in the ocean and a speck on the balance" (Isaiah 40:15); In essence, how humble people's material is, "God created people from the dust on the ground" (Gen 2:7), and people's "ontology is just dust" (Ps. 103: 14); As far as wisdom is concerned, people's knowledge is limited. "He doesn't know what will happen in the future, because who can tell him what will happen in the future? "(Ecclesiastes 8:7), even" you don't know what tomorrow will be like "(Hebrews 4: 14), not to mention those" profound and secret things "(Deuteronomy 29: 29; job 38: 1/4 1:34)； As far as ability is concerned, people's strength is so weak that they can't even win the law of their own inner crimes (Rom. 7: 18/25), and they are helpless in the face of the inevitable war of death (Ecclesiastes 8: 8); As far as people's appearance is concerned, people's beauty will disappear. "All human beings are like grass, and their beauty is like flowers in the field. The grass will wither and the flowers will wither "(Isa. 40:6/8); As far as people's life is concerned, how tiring it is for people to survive. "You need to sweat all over your face to get a bite to eat" (Gen. 3: 19), because "God makes people work hard and practice in it" (Ecclesiastes 3: 10), and it is also "extremely hard work" (Ecclesiastes 65438) "The world is really an illusion. It is futile for them to worry. I don't know who will hide the treasure in the future "(Ps. 39:6). Everyone has experienced a lifetime, in which "all you boast about is hard work and worry, and it becomes empty in an instant" (Ps. 90: 10) ... To David's surprise, God should care for such a man who has nothing. Because in the eyes of God, people are "worthy of loving as soon as possible", and in the human body, there are images and styles of God and aura of God (Gen1:27; 2.7), therefore, people are "like gods", like gods; People are "arrogant" and people are the spirit of everything. Not only that, but God has also given ......

In Isaiah of the Bible, you didn't find the word you wanted.

What is a person?
I hate life and don't want to live forever. Leave me alone! Because all my days are empty. This is the prayer job made when he was sad and depressed in suffering. A person who really loves the Lord, his time is very precious, but when he is sad and frustrated, his time becomes vain. So he said, because all my days are empty. This is the weakness of job's human nature. But about Job's spiritual experience, he said, "Make him the greatest, take him to heart, examine him every morning, and test him every moment.". Now it is divided into three parts: David said, I looked at the sky made by your fingers and the sun, moon and stars you set up, and said,' Do you care about him? This world, do you care about him? Because he knows what we are, missing us is just dust. As for man, his days are like grass, and he flourishes like flowers in the field. When the wind blows, he disappears, and his place no longer knows him. (Psalm 103: 14- 16) In the 40th chapter of Isaiah, there are seven metaphors for people's smallness, saying that people are like flowers (6-8), such as a drop of water, such as dust (15), such as If you go to the hospital and see those seriously ill people, you will know how pitiful and helpless they are, and you will sigh. Job's friend Zopha said, "Men are born of women, and their days are short and full of troubles. Come out like a flower and be cut off; Fly away like a shadow, can't stay. (Job 14: 1-2) When we were young, we still felt that time passed slowly, but in middle age and old age, we felt that time passed faster and faster. Moses sighed and said, "Our years are like a sigh. Just like yesterday, just like one o'clock at night. Wash away like water, like sleeping. In the morning, they are like growing grass, which germinates and grows in the morning and is cut and withered at night. Section 10 says: Our life is seventy years old, and if we are strong, we can live to be eighty years old. But all it boasted about was toil and worry, and then it became empty and we flew away. Moses died at the age of 120, but he still lamented that life is short, not to mention that we have only lived for decades. As the saying goes, time flies, the sun and the moon fly. Job said, My days are faster than a shuttle, and my life is just a breath. (Job 7: 6-7) When a man dies, his life is over. Although our days pass as fast as a shuttle, our life is like weaving a piece of cloth, woven into a big piece of cloth. If each piece is well woven, it becomes a beautiful piece of cloth. If you make it up casually, there will be many flaws. Our life is the same, we should be careful to be worthy of the Lord, others, ourselves and debts. Because we will meet the Lord in the future, our whole life will be revealed to the Lord, and our reward will mainly depend on our lives. Ecclesiastes 8: 8 says that no one has the right to control life and keep it. No one has the right to be in charge of death; No one can survive this war. Unless the Lord Jesus comes again and we are still alive, and the Lord lifts us into the air, then we can avoid the pain of physical death. The psalm says: Time flies without waiting. The clock has been ticking, reminding us that our time on the earth is decreasing, and it will end at the last tick. James 4: 14 says, what is your life? You used to be a cloud, which appeared less and disappeared. When I was working in a church, I often visited the church everywhere. Last time I was here, there were some brothers and sisters with them, but this time they have passed away. Every time I host a funeral service, I will go to the cemetery to see the members who have fallen in the grave. I worshipped god in the temple with us before I died, and now they are not in the world. David prayed and said, Lord, please tell me what my life is, so that I may know that my days are short. You make my days as narrow as the palm of your hand; The years of my life are nothing in front of you. (Psalm 39: 4-5) Moses said that if they were wise, they would understand this and would not miss their end. (Deuteronomy 32: 29) Life will come to an end. No matter how strong, how long, how successful and great, death is inevitable. The Lord Jesus said that the rich man who squandered himself every day and Lazarus who begged at the door all died, were buried and returned to the ground. Because the human body is dust, it should be buried after death and return to the earth. Ecclesiastes 12: 7 says: dust shall return to the earth, and spirit to the God who gave it. The end point of human body is the same, but the destination of soul is different. One suffers in the underworld and the other in heaven. The rich pursue worldly pleasures, ignoring the soul because of the luxurious feast every day. ......
What is man (Psalm 8: 1
Psalm 8
1 (a poem by David, for the music director. Use a collection instrument. O Lord our Lord, how beautiful is your name in all the earth! You show your glory to the sky.
For the sake of your enemy, you have built up your strength from the mouth of babies and sucklings, so that the enemy and the avenger are silent.
I look at the sky made of your fingers and the moon and stars you placed.
He said, what is man that you care about him? What do you care about his world?
You made him smaller than an angel and crowned him with glory and honor.
You made it rule over the work of your hands, even all things, that is, all cattle, sheep, wild animals, birds in the air and fish in the sea, under its feet.
O Lord our Lord, how beautiful is your name in all the earth!
Glory and praise to our Lord.
What are the people in the Bible?
He said, do you care who he is? What do you care about his world? (Psalm 8:4)
This shows that man is only a small part of God's creation.
What does the Book of Songs 8: 4 in the Bible mean?
I looked at the heaven created by your fingers, the moon and stars you placed, and I said, what is man that you care about him? What do you care about his world? You made him smaller than an angel and crowned him with glory and honor. (Psalm 8:3-5)
Ah, you care who he is! What do you care about perishable people? (Psalm 8:4 Modern Translation)
With reference to this translation, you can understand.
What do Hebrews 2: 5 to 8 mean in the Bible?
"We are talking about the future world. It turns out that God didn't give angels jurisdiction. But someone proves somewhere in the Bible: "What is man that you care about him? What is the world that you care about? " You made him a little smaller than an angel, crowned him with glory and honor, and put him in charge of everything your hands do, so that everything is under his feet' (Hebrews 2: 5-7).
In God's glorious plan, his intention is to let people manage all the creatures for God in the glory and honor given by God. It is a great honor for a man who came out of the dust to be exalted to such a high position by God. Therefore, Psalm 8: 4-6 laments "What is man …".
Angels are used by God, but God doesn't use them to rule everything. From the beginning of creation, God put his mind on man and entrusted the authority of management to the created man. After people lost, God's mind did not change. He didn't let angels replace people, but restored people to his original heart with the power of grace.
For the future world, God still leaves it to people to manage. He made his son a man, and stood on behalf of man from the standpoint of the Son of Man. God is such a considerate person.
Section 9 goes on to say that the son of God humbled himself and became a man smaller than an angel, and was about to die. At the right time, God exalted him and gave him all authority in heaven and earth. Man was restored by the son of God, and once again became the manifestation of God's glorious image.
Does the Bible say anything about the supremacy of mankind?
People are just sinners and deserve to go to hell. How can they be called supreme? Only the mercy of the supreme God gives us hope of salvation.
Job 7: 17 What is man, that you regard him as the greatest and take him to heart?
Psalm 8:4 He said, What is man that you care about him? What do you care about his world?
Psalm 144:3 Lord, what is man that you know him? What do you care about his world?
Hebrews 2:6 But someone has testified somewhere that you care about one person and you care about one person.
Romans 3: 10 As it is written, there is no righteous man, not even one.
Rom 3: 1 1 There is no one who understands or seeks God.
Rom 3: 12 all deviate from the right path and become useless together. There is no one who does good, not even one.
Rom 3: 13 Their throats are open graves. They cheat with their tongues. There is poisonous snake gas in the lips.
Rom 3: 14 is full of curses and pains.
Sea fish of Sparidae 3: 15 kill and bleed, and their feet fly away.
The sea fish of Sparidae 3: 16 did cruel and tyrannical things on their way.
Rom 3: 17 They don't know the way of peace.
