Psalm 5:8 — I will worship toward your holy temple in your fear; the temple is Christ
“I will worship toward your holy temple in your fear” (Psalm 5:8).
A holy temple of God is Christ, because “God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself” (2 Corinthians 5:19). In the fear of God everyone turns aside from evil (Proverbs 16:6); and in the fear of the Lord he worships the temple, which is Christ: for “Destroy this temple,” he says, “and in three days I will raise it” (John 2:19).

5.8 Προσκυνήσω πρὸς ναὸν α γιόν σου ἐν φόβῳ σου. Ναὸς α γιός ἐστι τοῦ Θεοῦ ὁ Χριστὸς, διότι ὁ Θεὸς η ν ἐν Χριστῷ κόσμον καταλλάσσων ἑαυτῷ. – ̓Εν τῷ φόβῳ Θεοῦ ἐκκλίνει πᾶς ἀπὸ κακοῦ· ἐν φόβῳ δὲ Κυρίου προσκυνεῖ τὸν ναὸν, ο ς ἐστι Χριστός· Λύσατε γὰρ, φη σὶν, τὸν ναὸν τοῦτον, καὶ ἐν τρισὶν ἡμέραις ἐγερῶ αὐτόν.
