97 2 Clouds and thick darkness surround him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne. 3 Fire goes before him and consumes his foes on every side. 4 His lightning lights up the world;the earth sees and trembles. The Psalmist uses the big disasters of creation as evidences that God laws,covenants, curses,statutes, promises and decrees control the entire structure of creation and mankind. We pronounce the powers over the world in the axioms. He is comparing the dead gods with the God who is always speaking.97 5 The mountains melt like wax before the LORD , before the Lord of all the earth. 6 The heavens proclaim his righteousness,and all the peoples see his glory. God does not need to use force to control the creation or mankind. He controls all choices. So axioms are Gods choices that control the way that man designs society. We can pronounce the blessing and cursing of the society and see the glory of God in bringing an end to the wicked and the success to the blessed.6 The heavens proclaim his righteousness,and all the peoples see his glory God proclaims , rumbles in the earthquake, blows in the tornado, rises in the flood, reaches as low as the deep oceans etc. Gods pronouncements prove that He rules by the personal interaction with creation . He is showing how dumb it is to worship dead gods.The Palmist is not teaching that Gods creation speech is all mystery. God did not create the earth and make it His proof of being God. He created the only earth in order to establish His government. Its not established in any other realm. God speaks as the governor. axiom speech
