About this image
A crown returned to the one who gave it. Psalm 145 is the only psalm in the entire collection that carries the title tehillah -- "a praise." Not "a prayer," not "a song," but specifically and exclusively "a praise." David, who wore a real crown over a real kingdom, writes about placing that authority back where it belongs. The Hebrew word rum, translated "exalt," means to raise high, to lift above everything else. It is a physical metaphor -- the act of taking something from your level and elevating it above your head. When a king exalts another king, the political implications are enormous. He is declaring a hierarchy, acknowledging a superior. David does this willingly. Not under threat, not in defeat, but in worship. Psalm 145 is also an acrostic -- each verse begins with a successive letter of the Hebrew alphabet, from aleph to tav. David is saying: from A to Z, beginning to end, I will praise you. No letter skipped, no gap in the devotion. This warm candlelit scene shows the crown resting on stone, rich velvet beneath it, firelight catching the gold. The crown is beautiful. And it is not being worn.
