One wonders how long it took to perform 119 in ancient Hebrew worship. There is a stanza for every letter of the Hebrew alphabet.

Was there harmony or was it in unison?

Did each stanza have its own melody or was it a long series of chants?

A celebration of the Torah, it begins with a statement that says speaks to the joy of living by the Torah.

Happy people walk the blameless way.

Happy people walk in the law of the Lord!

There is bliss and fulfillment in this way.

There is peace and contentment knowing that we are guided and protected, instructed and encouraged by the gift of a word from God.

It is worth a bit of exploration and meditation today.
