  • Psalm 89-93: Christ Our New King June 6, 2021 Message: Take a Few
    Psalm 89-93: Christ Our New King June 6, 2021 Message: Take a few moments to review the message notes from Sunday. What was your main takeaway from this message? Digging Deeper: Small Group Discussion 1.) What stood out to you? 2.) (Psalm 89) From the people’s perspective… their reality did not align with all of God’s promises. What happens when your reality fails to align with what you know to be true about God? 3.) (Psalm 90) In verse 12, what do you think it means when Moses says, “Teach us to number our days so that we may gain a heart of wisdom.”? 4.) (Psalm 91) God is our protection in verses 9 and 10, is God’s protection available to everyone? 5.) (Psalm 91:10) Does God’s protection mean Christians are immune from all harm? 6.) Satan quotes verse 11 to Jesus in the wilderness (Luke 4:9-12). The devil would like us to think that God’s promises have failed especially if He lets us suffer. Where does verse 15 say God will be? 7.) When the Israelites were tested in the wilderness they fell for Satan’s temptations. When Jesus was tested by Satan in the wilderness, He resisted temptation. What type of guidance does he model for us? 8.) (Psalm 92) This chapter is titled “A Song for the Sabbath Day.” It was written to be sung in community on the sabbath day.

  • 7] Arise, O Lord; Save Me, O My God: for Thou Hast Smitten All Mine Enemies Upon the Cheek Bone; Thou Hast Broken the Teeth of the Ungodly
    The World Is A Dangerous Place, But God Will Be Our Protection Psalm 3:1-5 KJV Lord, how are they increased that trouble me! Many are they that rise up against me. [2] Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah. [3] But Thou, O Lord, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head. [4] I cried unto the Lord with my voice, and He heard me out of His holy hill. Selah. [5] I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the Lord sustained me. David's son, Absalom, was trying to kill him; and David was running for his life when he sang this song. David was a man that knew that his God would keep him protected, if he believed in God's protection. Today I want you to see that God will protect you as well, if you believe for it. You do not have to fear being destroyed by anything, if you believe that God is your shield. In verse three, David declared that the Lord was his shield. A shield separates you from danger. Let's look at Ephesians 6:16 KJV Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. Notice that faith is declared to be a shield in this verse; and in Psalms 3:3, the Lord is David's shield. I believe if we have faith in the Lord protecting us, He becomes our shield.

  • The Psalms As Hymns in the Temple of Jerusalem Gary A
    4 The Psalms as Hymns in the Temple of Jerusalem Gary A. Rendsburg From as far back as our sources allow, hymns were part of Near Eastern temple ritual, with their performers an essential component of the temple functionaries. 1 These sources include Sumerian, Akkadian, and Egyptian texts 2 from as early as the third millennium BCE. From the second millennium BCE, we gain further examples of hymns from the Hittite realm, even if most (if not all) of the poems are based on Mesopotamian precursors.3 Ugarit, our main source of information on ancient Canaan, has not yielded songs of this sort in 1. For the performers, see Richard Henshaw, Female and Male: The Cu/tic Personnel: The Bible and Rest ~(the Ancient Near East (Allison Park, PA: Pickwick, 1994) esp. ch. 2, "Singers, Musicians, and Dancers," 84-134. Note, however, that this volume does not treat the Egyptian cultic personnel. 2. As the reader can imagine, the literature is ~xtensive, and hence I offer here but a sampling of bibliographic items. For Sumerian hymns, which include compositions directed both to specific deities and to the temples themselves, see Thorkild Jacobsen, The Harps that Once ... : Sumerian Poetry in Translation (New Haven: Yale University Press, 1987), esp. 99-142, 375--444. Notwithstanding the much larger corpus of Akkadian literarure, hymn~ are less well represented; see the discussion in Alan Lenzi, ed., Reading Akkadian Prayers and Hymns: An Introduction, Ancient Near East Monographs (Atlanta: Society of Biblical Literature, 2011), 56-60, with the most important texts included in said volume. For Egyptian hymns, see Jan A%mann, Agyptische Hymnen und Gebete, Orbis Biblicus et Orientalis (Gottingen: Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht, 1999); Andre Barucq and Frarn;:ois Daumas, Hymnes et prieres de /'Egypte ancienne, Litteratures anciennes du Proche-Orient (Paris: Cerf, 1980); and John L.

  • Seven Hebrew Words for Praise
    Seven Hebrew Words for Praise All expressions of praise have faith as their basis. When the Jews heard the words for praise they understood a lot more than we do today because they understood the meaning of it. YADAH – yaw-daw (Hands to God) The Hebrew word YADAH comes from two root words. YAD which means the open hand, direction, power. And AH which has reference to Jehovah. Together they are rendered Hands to God. It carries the meaning of absolute surrender as a child does to a parent – “pick me up, I’m all yours.” Scriptures: Genesis 29:35, 2 Chronicles 20:21, Psalm 42:9-11; 109:30, Isaiah 12:1 YADAH (3034)– to throw out hands; to worship with extended hands, Ps. 7:1, 9:1, 28:7, 33:2, 42:5, 44:8, 63:4, 100:4, 134:2, 141:2. The opposite is to wail, throw ones hands complaining. Our hands are an extension of our inward nature. Aggressiveness inside – hands hit people. It is an expression of a deep surrender to God and it is an extension of our hearts desiring to exalt Him. TOWDAH – toe-dah (Court of Law) TOWDAH (8426) – see thanksgiving. In the Old Testament, it translated as “Confession”. The New Testament translates it as “to say the same thing.” The word comes from Yadah and means to extend the hands. To declare openly, freely, unreservedly. Admit as real or true. The lifting of the hands signifies agreement. The ATTITUDE for TOWDAH is: I’m thanking God. I don’t care what it looks like.

  • The New Reform Temple of Berlin: Christian Music and Jewish Identity During the Haskalah
    THE NEW REFORM TEMPLE OF BERLIN: CHRISTIAN MUSIC AND JEWISH IDENTITY DURING THE HASKALAH Samuel Teeple A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC August 2018 Committee: Arne Spohr, Advisor Eftychia Papanikolaou © 2018 Samuel Teeple All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Arne Spohr, Advisor During the first decades of the nineteenth century, Israel Jacobson (1768-1828) created a radically new service that drew upon forms of worship most commonly associated with the Protestant faith. After finding inspiration as a student in the ideas of the Haskalah, or Jewish Enlightenment, Jacobson became committed to revitalizing and modernizing Judaism. Musically, Jacobson’s service was characterized by its use of songs modeled after Lutheran chorales that were sung by the congregation, organ accompaniment, choral singing, and the elimination of the traditional music of the synagogue, a custom that had developed over more than a millennium. The music of the service worked in conjunction with Protestant-style sermons, the use of both German and Hebrew, and the church- and salon-like environments in which Jacobson’s services were held. The music, liturgy, and ceremonial of this new mode of worship demonstrated an affinity with German Protestantism and bourgeois cultural values while also maintaining Judaism’s core beliefs and morals. In this thesis, I argue that Jacobson’s musical agenda enabled a new realization of German-Jewish identity among wealthy, acculturated Jews. Drawing upon contemporary reports, letters, musical collections, and similar sources, I place the music of Reform within its wider historical, political, and social context within the well-documented services at the Jacobstempel in Seesen and the New Reform Temple in Berlin.

  • Psalm 91 — in God I Trust
    Psalms, Hymns, and Spiritual Songs: The Master Musician’s Melodies Bereans Sunday School Placerita Baptist Church 2007 by William D. Barrick, Th.D. Professor of OT, The Master’s Seminary Psalm 91 — In God I Trust 1.0 Introducing Psalm 91 y The author of Psalm 91 is anonymous (like 14 of the 17 psalms in Book 4). y Psalm 91’s background and setting is unknown. 9 Some (like Wilcock) associate it with Moses, who wrote Psalm 90. y “My God, in whom I trust” (v. 2) is the theme of the psalm. 2.0 Reading Psalm 91 (NAU) 91:1 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High Will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. 91:2 I will say to the LORD, “My refuge and my fortress, My God, in whom I trust!” 91:3 For it is He who delivers you from the snare of the trapper And from the deadly pestilence. 91:4 He will cover you with His pinions, And under His wings you may seek refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and bulwark. 91:5 You will not be afraid of the terror by night, Or of the arrow that flies by day; 91:6 Of the pestilence that stalks in darkness, Or of the destruction that lays waste at noon. 91:7 A thousand may fall at your side And ten thousand at your right hand, But it shall not approach you. 91:8 You will only look on with your eyes And see the recompense of the wicked.

  • Psalm 91 and Its Wisdom Connections
    260 Botha, “Psalm 91 and Wisdom,” OTE 25/2 (2012): 260-276 Psalm 91 and its Wisdom Connections PHIL J. BOTHA (U NIVERSITY OF PRETORIA ) ABSTRACT The paper investigates the literary and theological provenance of Ps 91. It is shown that Ps 91 (in its present form) was composed by someone who had access to Proverbs, in particular Prov 3, while Ps 91 itself played a role in the composition of Job 5:17–26. As part of the “triptych” formed by Pss 90, 91 and 92, the psalm was intended to strengthen the conviction of its author that Yahweh is able and willing to provide protection to the individual believer who attaches himself or herself wholeheartedly to his or her God, saving the true and wise believer from the fate that will befall the wicked fools. A INTRODUCTION This paper is an investigation of the literary and theological provenance of Ps 91. The psalm is considered by many to contain remnants of an old liturgy 1 in which a believer is promised protection against misfortune. In its present shape, however, the psalm certainly does not represent the pristine form of such a lit- urgy, since it displays clear influence from the book of Proverbs, in particular from Prov 3. Together with Prov 3 it in turn also influenced the composition of Job 5:17–26. Psalm 91 is not an argumentative text, but in its present shape it approaches wisdom teaching which sought to convince individual worshippers of Yahweh’s protection for the righteous individual and of vindication of such believers when the “wicked” would be judged by Yahweh.
