“He made darkness his secret place; his pavilion round about him were dark waters and thick clouds of the skies.”
Psalms 18:11 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 18:11
God made darkness His covering, His canopy around Him 'thick clouds dark with water.' The Hebrew 'sukkah' (covering/booth) and 'chashekah' (darkness) create paradox—God dwells in inaccessible light (1 Timothy 6:16) yet here in darkness. This suggests mystery and hiddenness. Reformed theology affirms God's incomprehensibility—even in revelation, He remains beyond full human grasp (Isaiah 55:8-9).
