Topical Encyclopedia

The term "sheweth" is an archaic form of the word "shows" or "reveals," commonly found in older English translations of the Bible, such as the King James Version. In the Berean Standard Bible , this term is typically rendered as "shows" or "reveals," reflecting a more contemporary understanding of the text. The concept of "sheweth" is significant in biblical theology as it pertains to the revelation of God's will, character, and truth to humanity.

Divine Revelation

The act of God revealing Himself and His will to humanity is a central theme in Scripture. In the Old Testament, God "sheweth" His power and glory through creation, His mighty acts, and His covenantal relationship with Israel. For instance, Psalm 19:1 states, "The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands." Here, the natural world is a testament to God's majesty and creative power.

In the New Testament, the ultimate revelation of God is found in Jesus Christ. John 1:18 declares, "No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is Himself God and is at the Father’s side, has made Him known." Jesus "sheweth" the Father to us, embodying the fullness of God's grace and truth.

Moral and Spiritual Insight

The Scriptures also use the concept of "sheweth" in the context of moral and spiritual insight. Proverbs 3:32 states, "For the LORD detests the perverse, but He is a friend to the upright." Here, God "sheweth" favor and friendship to those who walk in righteousness, revealing His moral standards and expectations.

In the New Testament, the Holy Spirit plays a crucial role in "shewing" believers the truth. John 16:13 says, "However, when the Spirit of truth comes, He will guide you into all truth. For He will not speak on His own, but He will speak what He hears, and He will declare to you what is to come." The Spirit "sheweth" the truth of Christ and the future to believers, guiding them in their spiritual journey.

Judgment and Justice

The concept of "sheweth" is also linked to God's judgment and justice. In Romans 2:6 , Paul writes, "God 'will repay each one according to his deeds.'" God "sheweth" His justice by rewarding or punishing individuals based on their actions. This principle underscores the biblical teaching that God is a righteous judge who reveals His justice in due time.

Human Response

The appropriate human response to God's revelation is one of faith, obedience, and worship. Hebrews 11:1 defines faith as "the assurance of what we hope for and the certainty of what we do not see." Believers are called to trust in what God "sheweth" through His Word and His works, even when it is not visible to the natural eye.

In summary, the term "sheweth" encapsulates the multifaceted ways in which God reveals Himself and His purposes to humanity. Through creation, Scripture, the person of Jesus Christ, and the work of the Holy Spirit, God "sheweth" His glory, truth, and justice, inviting a response of faith and obedience from His people.
