  • Psalms Psalm
    Cultivate - PSALMS PSALM 126: We now come to the seventh of the "Songs of Ascent," a lovely group of Psalms that God's people would sing and pray together as they journeyed up to Jerusalem. Here in this Psalm they are praying for the day when the Lord would "restore the fortunes" of God's people (vs.1,4). 126 is a prayer for spiritual revival and reawakening. The first half is all happiness and joy, remembering how God answered this prayer once. But now that's just a memory... like a dream. They need to be renewed again. So they call out to God once more: transform, restore, deliver us again. Don't you think this is a prayer that God's people could stand to sing and pray today? Pray it this week. We'll pray it together on Sunday. God is here inviting such prayer; he's even putting the very words in our mouths. PSALM 127: This is now the eighth of the "Songs of Ascent," which God's people would sing on their procession up to the temple. We've seen that Zion / Jerusalem / The House of the Lord are all common themes in these Psalms. But the "house" that Psalm 127 refers to (in v.1) is that of a dwelling for a family. 127 speaks plainly and clearly to our anxiety-ridden thirst for success. How can anything be strong or successful or sufficient or secure... if it does not come from the Lord? Without the blessing of the Lord, our lives will come to nothing.

One of my boys loves to have his back scratched and preferably scratched hard. As I was scratching his back one night, he said: “This is the life!” At that moment, his idea of the good life was pretty simple.

As he writes in the introduction, "there is no other book in which we are more perfectly taught the right manner of praising God, or in which we are more powerfully stirred up to the performance of this religious exercise."

    Pastor Marc Wilson For Disorienting Times May 2020 A PLEA FOR GOD’S REMEMBRANCE—AS THE PEOPLE REMEMBER—SO, YAHWEH WILL RISE UP An Exegesis of Psalm 74 (NIV) A maskil of Asaph. A Plea for God’s Remembrance (1–3) An Address and Complaint to God Regarding Indefinite Rejection (1) 1 O God, why have you rejected us forever? Why does your anger smolder against the sheep of your pasture? A Petition for God to Remember the Redeemed (2) 2 Remember the nation you purchased long ago, the people of your inheritance, whom you redeemed— Mount Zion, where you dwelt. A Petition for God to Return to the Ruins (3) 3 Turn your steps toward these everlasting ruins, all this destruction the enemy has brought on the sanctuary. Remembering the Roaring of Foes Who Brought Ruin (4–8) 4 Your foes roared in the place where you met with us; they set up their standards as signs. 5 They behaved like men wielding axes to cut through a thicket of trees. 6 They smashed all the carved paneling with their axes and hatchets. 7 They burned your sanctuary to the ground; they defiled the dwelling place of your Name. 8 They said in their hearts, “We will crush them completely!” They burned every place where God was worshiped in the land. Restating the Complaint to God Regarding Indefinite Rejection while Exiled (9–11) Amid the Absence of Signs (9) 9 We are given no signs from God; no prophets are left, and none of us knows how long this will be.

Dissertations (2009 -). Paper 13. http://epublications.marquette.edu/dissertations_mu/13 Wisdom Editing in the Book of Psalms: Vocabulary, Themes, and Structures By Steven Dunn, B.A., M.Div. A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School, Marquette University, in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Milwaukee, Wisconsin December 2009 ABSTRACT Wisdom Editing in the Book of Psalms: Vocabulary, Themes, and Structures Steven Dunn, B.A., M.Div. Marquette University, 2009 This study examines the pervasive influence of post-exilic wisdom editors and writers in the shaping of the Psalter by analyzing the use of wisdom elements—vocabulary, themes, rhetorical devices, and parallels with other Ancient Near Eastern wisdom traditions. I begin with an analysis and critique of the most prominent authors on the subject of wisdom in the Psalter, and expand upon previous research as I propose that evidence of wisdom influence is found in psalm titles, the structure of the Psalter, and among the various genres of psalms. I find further evidence of wisdom influence in creation theology, as seen in Psalms 19, 33, 104, and 148, for which parallels are found in other A.N.E. wisdom texts. In essence, in its final form, the entire Psalter reveals the work of scribes and teachers associated with post-exilic wisdom traditions or schools associated with the temple.

    British Bible School – Online Classes: 14th September 2020 – 30th November 2020 THE PSALMS THE GENRES OF THE PSALMS 1. Genre is a word we use to identify certain types or categories of things which have the same characteristics within a wider or more general classification. Books, music, films all have their own genres. Books: Fiction – crime, sci-fi, fantasy, romance; and Non-fiction - history, biography, travel, science. Music – classical, pop, heavy metal, rap, soul. Films – comedy, westerns, period dramas, horror, war, documentary, animation. If we know what the genre is then we have a certain expectation or understanding of what we shall experience when we read the book, listen to the music, or watch the film. Just as we can identify genres in these other areas, so the Bible is a book which contains many different types or genres of literature: e.g. history, letters, law codes, prophecy, apocalyptic, wisdom and poetry. To correctly understand what we are reading we need to identify the genre. All the Psalms are in the genre of poetry. But within the genre of poetry we can identify seven different genres or types of Psalms. The psalms within each group display certain similar characteristics, phrases, and structure. The two primary genres of the Psalms are: i) Hymns ii) Laments Other genres are: iii) Psalms of thanksgiving iv) Psalms of remembrance v) Psalms of confidence vi) Wisdom psalms vii) Kingship or royal psalms This list is taken from Tremper Longman III, How to Read the Psalms, IVP, 1988. Other writers may use slightly different categories. Identifying the genre will help our understanding and interpretation of the text we are studying.
