26 Awesome Bible Quotes About Beauty

By looking through the scriptures, you can see how God’s creation is blessed with beautiful things ranging from humans, animals, tress, cities and more. Several Bible quotes about beauty reveal the differences.

This earth is full of beautiful things. However, the word ‘beauty’ differs from individual perspective. God also sees beauty in a way that is far beyond our comprehension. This is true because the Lord knows the hidden treasures in everything and anyone. He doesn’t simply look at the appearance. Interestingly, several Bible verses about beauty demonstrate the differences.

In all, nature is full of beautiful things. Think of how ‘beauty’ is often applied to women (Sarah, Esther, the Shunnamite, etc) and how God described cities like Jerusalem as beautiful.

Again, when we look at these Bible quotes about beauty, we can understand that God’s entire creation is full of beautiful things.
