Psalms 94:9

“He that planted the ear, etc.] In the human body, with so much art and skill, in so convenient a place, so capacious of receiving sounds, and fitted it with organs suited for such a purpose: shall he not hear? the atheism spoke in the heart, in the actions and by the mouths of such blasphemers of him; the hard speeches spoken against his Son, his person and offices; and against his Spirit, his being, and operations; and against his people, the saints of the most High; in short, all those blasphemies and evil speakings of God, of his tabernacle, and those that dwell therein: it would be monstrous stupidity to imagine, that that God, that communicates a faculty of hearing to his creatures,…”

“94:9 It is preposterous that those with ears and eyes would imagine their Creator to be deaf and blind.”

“He that planted: Exo 4:11; Pro 20:1, Pro 20:12 hear: Psa 11:4, Psa 17:3, Psa 44:21, Psa 139:1-12; Jer 23:23, Jer 23:24 Psalms 94:10”
