Narrator: Chris Genthree
Habakkuk 2:20
Habakkuk 2:2020But the Lord is in his holy temple: let all the earth keep silence before him. (Habakkuk 2:20). But the Lord is in his holy temple: let all the earth keep silence before him.
There may be a reference here to the profound and impressive silence which prevails in Oriental courts among the guards and officers who attend upon royal personages.
