Psalms 75:6 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 75:6
The psalm teaches: "For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south" (Hebrew ki lo mi-motza u-mi-ma-arav v-lo mid-bar harim). The three directions (excluding north where God's throne is, v.6) represent all earthly sources. "Promotion" (Hebrew harim, literally "lifting up") doesn't come from human sources—geography, politics, or effort. The verse demolishes self-advancement, establishing that elevation comes solely from God. This humbles pride and encourages trust.
