The Teacher

Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are Elohim,  my comfort. Psalm 25:5

The Hebrew language has three primary names for the Holy One: Yahweh, Adonai, and Elohim. The latter is the earliest one and the name the scribes used for the Creator. Here the psalmist recognizes the teacher of truth as Elohim, who also brings comfort and health - the meaning of yesha which usually translates into English as "salvation." The context for the above verse is a prayer of King David for protection from his enemies, and a plea for preservation. Who better to ask for help than the Creator? Our enemies might be in the form of physical, mental, or spiritual threat. These different realms were created by Elohim for our well-being, and we can rest assured that all true things bring joy to our Creator, and ourselves. Falsehoods, enemies, erupt into the stresses that consume our energy. Sometimes, we need a reminder to remember that our Teacher's compassion does not remember our failings. Another note about Psalm 25: it's an acrostic lesson wherein the first word of each verse follows alphabetical order as a method for memorizing the text. Some versions of the Bible use marginal notations to indicate the Hebrew letters. For example the first word, after the salutation ("of David"), begins with aleph. The first letter of verse 5 is he, the fifth letter in the Hebrew alphabet, and so on.
