Psalm 103:16
“For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more.”
KJV
Read in Psalm 103Meaning
Within “Human brevity and enduring covenant love,” verse 16 shows how quickly human glory disappears when the wind passes over it and its place no longer knows it; this detail advances the unit's argument and should not be detached from the whole psalm.
Read carefully
Read Psalm 103:16 inside its literary unit and the movement of Psalm 103; its imagery and claims are constrained by that context.
Reflection
Respond to the verse's specific emphasis — shows how quickly human glory disappears when the wind passes over it and its place no longer knows it — while reading it together with the surrounding lines of Psalm 103.
