EDITORS COMMENTS
PSALM LXXXIX 8.9: "The Lord is gracious and full of compassion, slow to anger and of great kindness. He is patient, and of great mercy. He does not deal with us according to our sins, nor repay us according to our iniquities. For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is His mercy towards those who fear Him; as far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us." This beautiful and evocative image, created in 1886, illustrates the text from Psalm LXXXIX 8.9, which speaks of the boundless mercy and compassion of God. The serene scene of a ship sailing upon a calm sea is a visual representation of the peace and tranquility that comes from being in the presence of such divine love. The bouquet of seaweed and shells, carefully arranged at the water's edge, serves as a reminder of the beauty and wonder of God's creation, and the fleeting yet enduring nature of life. The application of this text and image to the human experience is a powerful reminder of the forgiveness and mercy that is available to us all, no matter the depth of our transgressions. The vastness of the heavens and the endless expanse of the sea serve as a metaphor for the boundless nature of God's love and compassion, which is always present, always ready to forgive, and always waiting to be embraced. This 1886 print, with its intricate details and thoughtful composition, invites us to reflect on the depth of God's mercy and the beauty of His creation, and to find solace and peace in the knowledge that our sins are truly removed from us, as far as the east is from the west.
