Genesis 1:14-18
lights <03974> [Let there.]
lights <03974> [lights.]
Or, rather, luminaries or light-bearers; being a different world from that rendered light, in ver. 3, the day from the night.
[between the day and between the night. and let.]

Psalms 19:1-6
psalm <04210> [(Title.) A Psalm.]
It is uncertain when this highly finished and beautiful ode was composed; though some think it was written by David in the wilderness when persecuted by Saul.
heavens <08064> [The heavens.]
sky <07549> [the firmament.]
{RakeeÆ’,} from {rakÆ’,} to stretch out, the expanse, not only containing the celestial bodies, but also the air, light, rain, dews, etc., all of which display the infinite power and wisdom of their Almighty Creator.
Day ... day <03117> [Day unto.]
[nigh unto.]
actual speech <0562> [There.]
Or, "They have no speech, nor words, nor is their voice heard; yet into all the earth hath gone out their sound, and to the extremity of the world their words." The Hebrew, {kav,} rendered, line, like the Greek [phthoggos,] by which the LXX., (who are followed by St. Paul), render it, no doubt signifies the sound as well as the cord which emits it. The Vulgate, Jerome, and Symmachus, render it to the same purpose.
voice <06963> [where. or, without these their voice is heard. Heb. without their voice heard.]
<06957> [line. or, rule, or, direction. In them.]
bridegroom <02860> [bridegroom.]

faithfulness <0530> [faithfulness]
Psalms 89:36-37
dynasty <02233> [seed.]
throne <03678> [and.]
remain <03559> [It shall.]
That is, as long as the sun and moon shall endure, as long as time shall last, his kingdom shall continue among men. The moon is probably termed a faithful witness, because by her, particularly, time is measured. Her decrease and increase are especially observed by every nation; and by these time is generally estimated, especially among eastern nations:--So many moons is a man old--so many moons since such an event happened; and even their years are reckoned by lunations. Or, the rainbow may be intended; that faithful sign which God has established in the clouds, that the earth shall no more be destroyed by water.

Psalms 119:89
Lamed <05769> [For ever.]
Psalms 136:7-9
sun <08121> [The sun.]
rule <04475> [to rule. Heb. for the rulings.]
moon ... stars <03394 03556> [The moon and stars.]
The sun is the monarch of day, the state of light; the moon of the night, the state of darkness. The rays of the sun falling on the atmosphere, are refracted and diffused over the whole of the hemisphere of the earth immediately under his orb; while those rays of that vast luminary which, because of the earth's smallness in comparison with the sun, are diffused on all sides beyond the earth, falling on the opaque disc of the moon, are reflected back on the lower hemisphere, or the part of the earth opposite the sun. But the reflected light being 50,000 times less in intensity than that of the sun, there is a sufficient distinction between day and night, though each is ruled and determined by one of these two great lights.
Matthew 5:45
you may be <1096> [ye.]
