Psalm 63 in the Context of the Psalter A STUDY OF ITS IMAGERY AND THEOLOGY PSALM 63 IN THE CONTEXT OF THE PSALTER I intend it as a highest commendation to say that Zieba has written an "old fashioned" critical study. By that I mean there are no short-cuts, no facile arguments, and no easy assumptions. Instead what we get is a closely reasoned, knowingly offered analysis of the Psalm. That close reading is framed by a well informed introduction to the world of poetic imagination and by theological reflection at the end. This study is a model of how to do careful research in an interdisciplinary context with outcomes that are well grounded. This study is the outcome of fine work, sure to be referenced much in time to come. WALTER BRUEGGEMANN Professor Emeritus of Old Testament at Columbia Theological Seminary, Decatur, Georgia Psalm 63 has often been called 'the pearl of the Psalter'. It has been used at morning prayer in the monastic and church offices through the centuries, and along with corresponding imagery in psalms such as 42-3, 84 and 143 has been prominent in Jewish and Christian piety at times of weariness and thirsting for the presence of God. Zbigniew ('Ziggy) Zieba takes this familiar psalm and explores its rich imagery and metaphorical language not only in the context of psalmody, but also of similar prophetic texts in Isaiah and Jeremiah and of the poetry of the ancient Near East, particularly from Sumer and Ugarit. A later tra• jectory is also explored with reference to poets such as George Herbert and Henry Vaughan. Through this detailed study the reader not only learns much about the poetry and imagery of the psalms in general but also finds new ways of using Psalm 63 in particular for personal reflection and private prayer. Dr SUSAN GILLINGHAM Reader in Old Testament, University of Oxford, and Fellow and Tutor in Theology, Worcester College, Oxford Hebrew poetry (within the context of Ancient Near Eastern analogies) still has much to reveal. Thor• ough studies of imagery and metaphors in the Psalms, like this one of Zbigniew Zieba, help us to understand more of its mysteries. ERHARD S. GERSTENBERGER Professor Emeritus of Old Testament at Marburg University, Germany Zieba's study of Psalm 63 and its significance in the wider context of the Psalms and the Hebrew Bible is an important contribution to our understanding of how metaphor functioned in the ancient Near East. It offers insights into the theological meaning of the psalm which are of continuing relevance, showing how these ancient texts, once we understand the figures they use, continue both to inspire and to encourage. Zieba's approach is accessible without losing scholarly integrity: a rare virtue. I hope that his book will find a wide readership. Dr ALASTAIR HUNTER Honorary Research Fellow at the University of Glasgow Psalm 63 is well-known for its beauty and its poetic nature, and Dr Ziebas study is a fine aid to the ap• preciation of the way this psalm and other psalms work as poetry. ^ JOHN GOLDINGAY David Allan Hubbard Professor of Old Testament at Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena, California Zbigniew Zieba is Lecturer in Old Testament Studies at St. Marys Col• lege, Oscott, Birmingham, England. He holds the M.A. degree in Theol• ogy from the Catholic University of Lublin, and the S.S.L. degree from the Pontifical Biblical Institute in Rome, and the PhD from Durham University. He also studied at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He has an interest in biblical poetry and has written a number of articles on the subject. He is a priest of the Archdiocese of Birmingham and has been ordained since 1996. .

Given that the use of biblical texts in liturgy was beginning to develop at * Susan Gillingham D.D. is Professor of the Hebrew Bible at the University of Oxford and Fellow and Tutor in Theology at Worcester College. Her chief research interest is in the Book of Psalms: their setting in ancient Israelite and early Jewish religion, the literary and theological shaping of the Psalter, and the reception history of psalmody over the last two and a half millennia, both in Jewish and Christian traditions, in translations, commentaries, sermons, liturgy, art, music, poetry, drama, film, and modern discourse.

  • Oxfordcolleges
    Oxford colleges Oxford University is made up of different colleges. Colleges are academic communities. They are where students usually have their tutorials. Each one has its own dining hall, bar, common room and library, and lots of college groups and societies. If you study here you will be a member of a college, and probably have your tutorials in that college. You will also be a member of the wider University, with access to University and department facilities like laboratories and libraries, as well as hundreds of University groups and societies. You would usually have your lectures and any lab work in your department, with other students from across the University. There is something to be said for an academic atmosphere wherein everyone you meet is both passionate about what they are studying and phenomenally clever to boot. Ziad 144| Does it matter which college I go to? What is a JCR? No. Colleges have a lot more in common than Junior Common Room, or JCR, means two they have differences.

  • Churches to Reflect on ‘Life in All Its Fullness’ by Jo Duckles
    www.oxford.anglican.org March 2018 No. 300 thedoor Tim discovers community organising page 11 Win a book see centrespread the Door – have your say page 3 Meet Margot Hodson page 16 Churches to reflect on ‘life in all its fullness’ By Jo Duckles THE Bishop of Oxford is calling on Christians across the diocese to join him in reflecting on the story of the raising of Lazarus this Lent. The Rt Revd Steven Croft is encouraging everyone to read the story, told in John 10 and 11. He has written Abundant Life – a series of 21 reflections, also available as podcasts, to accompany the Bible readings. The Abundant Life resources are accompanied by a verse and response style prayer and the piece of artwork pictured, which was created by Oxford based artist, Tom Bower. The booklet is selling like hot cakes. A fun companion booklet, GodVenture through the Life Of Lazarus, complete with stickers, is being used by 2,000 families. It comes hot on the heels of Exploring the Beatitudes – a three session course launched late last year. 4,000 copies have already been ordered with more than 300 small groups using the resource. In a recent blog, Bishop Steven wrote: “Lent began in the early Church as 40 days of preparation time for new Christians to prepare for baptism at Easter. The whole Church started to keep this 40 days to go back to the heart of the gospel and walk with the candidates as they prepared for this life-changing moment. “Christians give up things for Lent as a spiritual discipline, remembering the 40 days Jesus fasted in the wilderness.

  • Jewish and Christian Approaches to Suffering in the Reception of Psalm 137
    444 Gillingham, “Approaches to Suffering,” OTE 32/2 (2019): 444-463 Jewish and Christian Approaches to Suffering in the Reception of Psalm 137 SUSAN GILLINGHAM (UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD) ABSTRACT This paper illustrates how Psalm 137 is used to address the question of suffering by Jews and Christians during various crises of faith. In Jewish tradition, the psalm has a “meta-narrative” which meant reading it as a story set in poetry, speaking to the people as a whole not only emotionally but also materially. Only in later Christian reception does the engagement with this psalm become more obviously physical; Christians tend to avoid seeing the psalm as a meta-narrative and instead select single verses or phrases from it in order to teach spiritual lessons, often through the use of “allegory”, where different words are used to speak to more individual concerns. A selective survey of Jewish and Christian approaches to suffering in the reception of Psalm 137 suggests that the Christian reception of Psalm 137 in times of suffering is distinct from the Jewish one. Whereas early Jewish readings had a more corporate and physical emphasis, as crisis after crisis threatened the identity of the Jews as a people, early Christian readings are more personal and spiritualised, heightened through the use of allegory. KEYWORDS: allegory, Christian exegetical tradition, crises of faith, exile, Jewish exegetical tradition, Psalm 137, meta-narrative, reception, suffering. A INTRODUCTION I have presented two papers on Psalm 137 to colleagues in the Department of Old Testament Studies at the University of Pretoria, where I am proud to be a Research Associate.

It is of course an English translation of the Latin phrase Nostra Aetate, the opening words, and thus the name, of the Vatican II declaration on “Other Religions,” first promulgated on 28 October 1965. So during the course of the last year there have been a number of significant events held, both in Rome and elsewhere, to mark the 50th anniversary of this groundbreaking document. I was privileged to participate in at least two of these, and grateful to be invited to bring greetings from the World Council of Churches.
