The Hebrew root for "rule" is "mashal," which conveys the idea of dominion and governance. In the ancient Near Eastern context, kings were often seen as having divine authority, but this verse attributes ultimate sovereignty to God alone. This reflects a central theme in the Bible: God's supreme power over the universe, which is a source of comfort and assurance for believers. It reminds us that no matter the chaos in the world, God is in control. the raging sea when its waves mount up You still them Parallel Commentaries ...
