Psalm 8, 6

This psalm the nature of humans as created by Yahweh or God: "You have made him little less than the angels and crowned him with glory and honor. You have given him rule over the works of your hands, putting all things under his feet."

This famous passages establishes humans as rulers of nature and all its creatures, and justifies their use of nature and its creatures to make a living and build a better life materially.

This passage also refers to the dignity and worth of each human, and anticipate that a Jewish, Christian, Western, sacred humanism is best honored and practiced when referring to actualizing individualists.
