Ps 11 4 The LORD is in his holy temple;
the LORD is on his heavenly throne.
He observes the sons of men;
his eyes examine them.
  5 The LORD examines the righteous,
but the wicked and those who love violence
his soul hates."

When man fell into sin, he was cursed. His entire being both body and soul were reduced by corruption. We define the corruption of body and soul as being imputed with sin. The corruption was not just an opposing force to thwart the purposes of man but it made man unable to meet the standards of acceptance with God. The bible defines this unwillingness in man to please God as hate.

God created the earth by pronouncing everything into existence. The creation was not just a visible display of Gods work but it was the argument that God is very precise in controlling all things according to His law, covenants, curses, decrees, statutes and promises. In the garden man was an intricate part of the purpose and ends of God in the creation. But the fall reduced man to being powerless caught in a war between God and Satan. This great spiritual battle is beyond mans physical and mental abilities. The standard of acceptance of Gods eternal justice is displayed in His spoken word that brings all things into existence in unifying all them according to Gods law. God responded to the fall by pronouncing death to all corruption in order that He might act lawfully by recreating the creation through renewal. When the Psalmist describes the wicked as loving violence , he is defining their opposition as the inability to think, speak and act in unity with Gods purposes of bringing glory to Himself. The fall brought about a war that is fought by Satan and his children who redefine Gods word against God who controls life and death by His word.5b " the wicked and those who love violence
his soul hates."

God pronounced a curse on all creation in responding to the fall of man. Gods curse prevented any person or power outside of Himself from taking part in the work of salvation. Salvation is a work of God under the constraint and control of the curse of death. When ever salvation is present it is a predetermined work of God that cannot fail. All opposition to salvation is made powerless by pronouncement of the eternal Judge who orders His kingdom through His perfect law. Not only has God overcome all opposition through His word , but He has predetermined the fall of man, the war that is fought by Satan and the corruption of the creation. He has contained the potential for disaster and the amount of deception in producing a rest for His elect in the gift of pronouncing the Psalms as the way to control the opposition through His elect.
