	* One of the geocentric verses: "The world will surely stand in place, never to be moved." We now know this to be false as science. It is true as ''phenomenology''--speaking from the perspective of how the earth ''appears'' to us through the naive testimony of our senses. Science describes the manifold motions of the earth and predicts that it will surely not last forever.

	::: The psalter, lamentably, translates the Hebrew as "God is King." But the [[Divine Name\|sacred tetragrammaton]] does NOT mean "God"; it is the ''name'' of God. The Jews would say "Adonai" instead of pronouncing the Name. That is a word free from extraneous meanings in our liturgy--better than "Jehovah," a nonsense word, or the [[Divine Name]] itself, or "God," or "I AM." "The LORD" is not bad, either.
