ON “ALL FLESH IS GRASS”

Demonstrates the delicacy and brevity of human presence and achievement. The quick development and prospering of grass and blossom after a downpour in Israel and their similarly shriveling in the hot sun is a picture of human fragility against which is differentiated the perpetual quality of God’s promise. “For all flesh is as grass and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away:
But the word of the Lord endureth forever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.” 1 Peter 1:24-25 KJV
