Description |
What role did the psalms play in ancient Israel? Why are the Psalsm the most frequently quoted book in the New Testament (along with Isaiah and Genesis)? How have people interpreted and used them through the centuries? How mighty they give us life today, whether in individual use or corporate worship, in providing comfort to the distressed or afflicting the comfortable? In this course, we will pursue answers to these question about the Book of Psalms along with other psalm-like compositions in and outside the Bible. |
