On the Mountain

This vivid graphic attempts to capture the awe and wonder expressed in the Scriptures through its repeated imagery of the mountain as God's dwelling place. The Psalms especially are replete with this metaphorical description of God's loftiness and holiness.  Great for sermons on the Psalms, holiness, theology about God’s transcendence, Elijah’s encounter with God and the still small voice, Moses ascending the mountain to receive the Law, and even the Transfiguration.

For six days the cloud covered the mountain, and on the seventh day the Lord called to Moses from within the cloud.

And he stayed on the mountain forty days and forty nights. Psalm 3:4 I call out to the Lord, and he answers me from his holy mountain.
