For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea. Habakkuk 2:14 (NIV)
My reflection of the verse
Etymology of the word knowledge came from Middle English knowlege, from knowlechen to acknowledge, irregular form knowen. It is applicable to facts or ideas that are acquired by study, investigation, observation or experience.[from Merriam Webster Dictionary] Based on this definition, the verse speaks of knowledge that is revealed about God. We can never deny the existence of God and the commandments He gave us. It is sad to know that there are people who ridicule God or doesn't acknowledge His presence in their lives. But rather continue to do things that are not pleasing to Him. I pray that their hearts and minds be touched by God. So that they may see the wonders He has made and learn how to respect Him including the people and things He created.
