Psalm 17:8 (a) This is a beautiful picture of the confidence that David had in the love and care of his Lord. He pictures himself as one of the little chickens or a little bird which in time of fear or danger hurries beneath the mother's wings. (See also Psalm 91:4).
Isaiah 29:15 (a) Here we see a picture of those who try to run their own way, "paddle their own canoe," seek to manage their own affairs, without consulting GOD, or caring for GOD's will.
Isaiah 49:2 (a) This is an expression which indicates the safety and peace of the one who realizes that he is hidden in the hollow of the Lord's hand as a precious coin or jewel is held in the hand of its owner. The thief must kill the owner before the jewel in his hand can be taken from him.
Hosea 13:14 (a) This type informs us that GOD will no more alter His plan or purpose to give to Israel everlasting blessings. He will resurrect the nation from throughout the world where the people have been scattered, and will fulfill His Word spoken to them through the prophet. This truth is indicated in John 11:25-26.
Nahum 3:11 (b) Probably this figure indicates that Nineveh was to be so completely destroyed that no one would ever be able to find her and to rebuild her as a city.
