Thematic Bible
spiritual Progress » A characteristic of the righteous
The righteous will flourish like the date palm [long-lived, upright and useful];
They will grow like a cedar in Lebanon [majestic and stable].
And we all, with unveiled face, continually seeing as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are progressively being transformed into His image from [one degree of] glory to [even more] glory, which comes from the Lord, [who is] the Spirit.

Verse Concepts
But the path of the just (righteous) is like the light of dawn,
That shines brighter and brighter until [it reaches its full strength and glory in] the perfect day.
“Nevertheless the righteous will hold to his ways,
And he who has clean hands will grow stronger and stronger.
They go from strength to strength [increasing in victorious power];
Each of them appears before God in Zion.
Practice and work hard on these things; be absorbed in them [completely occupied in your ministry], so that your progress will be evident to all.
