For all the world's massive might, it has been brought very low by a tiny virus.  In the same way, every man, woman, or child who has ever lived will one day have to reckon with someone who was born in a nowhere town to a nobody carpenter's family, and who was killed in a shameful, demeaning way.  There is an important irony here for us to consider!  Psalm 2 puts this irony on display and encourages us to trust in Almighty God who always brings his purposes to pass, thwarting the vain efforts of the nations.
