1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good. The fool – One who ignores, or lacks, reason. HG528:1

The person who, after intelligent thought, concludes that there is no God; that everything came to be what it is by chance. SM467:3; R5210:3, R2834:2

Said in his heart – Even the "fool" says it to himself. It is not a conclusion of reason, but an expression of a wish. He is anxious to get rid of God in order that he may freely exploit his folly. R3421:1

There is no God – That each cranium makes its own god, according to its own development of the qualities of wisdom, justice, love and power. OV61:T

2 The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God.
3 They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one. None that doeth good – None up to the standard of perfection required by the Law; hence none approved by it. R812:2*

None perfect, sound in either mind or body. R1080:2, R1413:1


4 Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.
5 There were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the righteous.
6 Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the LORD is his refuge.
7 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! when the LORD bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad. Out of Zion – The spiritual Church of God. A297; D23; T33; R4474:2
