The Lord Will

Psalm 84:3

β€œYea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O Lord of hosts, my King, and my God.”

KJV

Read in Psalm 84

Meaning

The birds contribute to the poetry of nearness and home; the verse should not be forced into a technical claim about temple architecture.

Read carefully

The poetic image emphasizes nearness and belonging; the exact spatial detail is not the point.

Reflection

Make communities of worship hospitable rather than status-driven.
