Commentary: Psalm 23 was chosen for inclusion into Jesus’ 77 Witness Ciphers, because it is well known. It also typically illustrates the Seven-Spirits-of-God structure of a Psalm with a destination Cross of YHWH-God. It should be noted that most, if not all, verses in the Book of Psalms individually generate a picture of the cross. So, there are thousands of images of a cross formed in just the Book of Psalms if one uses Jesus’ Witness Cipher to SEE them. The second Commandment of God forbids making a graven image of God. Scripture already provides the image of God–the Cross.
