The Heavens Declare the Glory of God

It occurred to me that the word "declare" in Ps 19 must be quite a word because those "heavens" are quite a sight.  The word is an accounting word that means numerate.  The Psalmist is focusing on the sheer number of the stars.  In contrast he uses a word for hand needle point for "the earth showeth His handiwork".  Here we have a God who displays His vastness on the one hand and on the other orders the tiniest details of the here and now.
