“I said, ‘You are “gods”; you are all sons of the Most High.'” – Psalm 82:6
Many take this passage in isolation and present themselves as all-seeing, all-knowing and all-deciding.
They conveniently exclude the preceding verse –
“The ‘gods’ know nothing, they understand nothing. They walk about in darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken.” – Psalm 82:5
And then the even more stunning following verse,
“But you will die like mere mortals; you will fall like every other ruler.” – Psalm 82:7
Be careful when you choose the path of a god.
– Osasu Oviawe
