Psalm 104

This psalm emphasizes God as creator. It has an interesting discussion of many aspects of creation. According to this psalm:

1. the seas have a marked line that they cannot cross. I wonder how literal we should interpret this. Although the general coastal boundaries have roughly been the same for human existence, there are exceptions. Volcanic islands are currently being formed and land is being subsumed under water.

2. the sun knows when to go down. This might indicate that this psalm is metaphorical as it is the rotation of the earth that makes the sun "go down".

3. God created the Leviathan to frolic in the oceans. If the Leviathan is a fallen angel/ demonic entity, this would indicate that God gave it authority of the oceans.
