This course will enable students to develop the competencies necessary to interpret the Psalms for preaching. Students will explore the history and reception of the Psalms, engage in theological interpretation of the Psalms, and reflect on issues that impact preaching on the Psalms. These scholarly topics will be examined with reference to the homiletic task, thus helping students discover the challenges and possibilities of interpreting the Psalms for preaching. By the completion of the course, students will be able to construct theologically informed, textually attentive, and liturgically appropriate sermons on the Psalms.
