Psalms 114 clinched hope in the day and showed me the experimental writing of the Bible. Look at it, I challenge you. I could have put it here for you to peruse, but I'd rather you dust off the Bible and see for yourself how this writer, listed as anonymous, pushed the boundaries of fiction, spiritual writing, and even praise. I'm deeply impressed. It took reading one-hundred and fourteen Psalms for me to be truly moved. I edit for a living, easy enough. For the Bible to surprise me in a writing style is a hard task since it is historical and my learning foundation was built upon it and other period-specific styles and works. I had a very pleasant commute home knowing that life still has unknown corners to peek around and discover hidden blessings.
Exert:
"What’s wrong, Red Sea, that made you hurry out of their way?
What happened, Jordan River, that you turned away?
6 Why, mountains, did you skip like rams?
Why, hills, like lambs?"
