dwelling place
Psalms 90:1
90:1 dwelling place. Moses had dwelt in a basket on the river, in the king’s palace, in the land of Midian, and then forty years in the wilderness. Like Moses, the ancient patriarchs also had “no certain dwellingplace” (I Corinthians 4:11). Yet Moses could write that “the eternal God is thy refuge [same Hebrew word as ‘dwelling place’], and underneath are the everlasting arms” (Deuteronomy 33:27). We, like they, are “strangers and pilgrims on the earth” (Hebrews 11:13), but wherever the Lord is, that’s where home is!
