Psa 8:4 | MHM | STEP | v. 4 : David asks, “What is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of man that You visit him?” . He is amazed that God, who is so great, would consider humans, who are weak and sinful. God not only provides for people, such as food and clothing, but also visits them as a friend does. This shows God’s care and love for even the smallest of His creatures. v. 4–8 (Christ’s Fulfillment) : These verses also point to Jesus Christ. The New Testament explains that Jesus is the true Son of Man who was made lower than angels for a time, suffered, and was then exalted to the highest place (Hebrews 2:6-9 ). God has placed everything under Jesus’ authority, and through Him, humanity receives its greatest honour. Jesus rules over all creation, and one day everything will be fully under His control. When we read or sing this psalm, we should thank God for His kindness to all people, but especially praise Jesus Christ. He is the Lord over all, and we should submit to Him and look forward to the day when everything is under His rule.
