  • 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.

  • Psalms from Book III [Psalm 73, 75-77, 80, 84, 87 & 89]
    READ The BIBLE Together Selected Psalms from Book III [Psalm 73, 75-77, 80, 84, 87 & 89] 15th February – 18th April 2015 SHALOM CHURCH, SINGAPORE (Upholding the 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith) 1 Week 1 [15th – 21st February 2015] We read some selected psalms from Book I (Psalm 1-41) for our RTBT in May-June 2012 and some selected psalms from Book II (Psalm 42-72) for our RTBT in Mar-May 2013. For this current RTBT series, we shall be studying some selected psalms from Book III (Psalm 73-89). As we do so, let us first re-read the Introduction to the Book of Psalms: The Hebrew title of the Book of Psalms is ‘praise’. In other words, the Book of Psalms is the book of praise. Now, that’s an unusual title. Why do I say that? Survey the 150 individual psalms and you will see that there are more sad psalms than happy psalms, more psalms of laments than psalms of praise! That being so, why is the Book of Psalms called the book of praise? Survey the 150 individual psalms again and you will see this pattern emerging -- you will meet many sad psalms in the beginning, but as you move nearer to the end, the sad psalms decrease while the happy psalms increase! [Psalm 3 is a psalm of lament, so is Psalm 4, Psalm 6, Psalm 7, Psalm 10, Psalm 12, Psalm 13, to mention just the first few. Psalm 146 is a psalm of praise, and so also is Psalm 147, Psalm 148, Psalm 149 and Psalm 150!] The Book of Psalms moves from lamentations to praise, from the chords of sufferings to the choruses of praises.

  • At Home Study Guide Praying the Psalms for the Week of May 15, 2016 Psalms 1-2 BETHELCHURCH Pastor Steven Dunkel
    At Home Study Guide Praying the Psalms For the Week of May 15, 2016 Psalms 1-2 BETHELCHURCH Pastor Steven Dunkel Today we start a new series in the Psalms. The Psalms provide a wonderful resource of Praying the Psalms inspiration and instruction for prayer and worship of God. Ezra collected the Psalms which were written over a millennium by a number of authors including David, Asaph, Korah, Solomon, Heman, Ethan and Moses. The Psalms are organized into 5 collections (1-41, 42-72, 73-89, 90-106, and 107-150). As we read the book of Psalms we see a variety of psalms including praise, lament, messianic, pilgrim, alphabetical, wisdom, and imprecatory prayers. The Psalms help us see the importance of God’s Word (Torah) and the hopeful expectation of God’s people for Messiah (Jesus). • Why is the “law of the Lord” such an important concept in Psalm 1 for bearing fruit as a follower of Jesus? • In John 15, Jesus says that apart from Him you can do nothing. Compare the message of Psalm 1 to Jesus’ words in John 15. Where are they similar? • Psalm 2 tells of kings who think they have influence and yet God laughs at them (v. 3). Why is it important that we seek our refuge in Jesus (2:12)? • Our heart for Bethel Church in this season is that we would saturate ourselves with God’s Word, specifically the book of Psalms. We’ve created a reading plan that allows you to read a Psalm a day or several Psalms per day as well as a Proverb.

  • A Comprehensive Reading of Psalm 137
    Simango, “Psalm 137,” OTE 31/1 (2018): 217-242 217 A Comprehensive Reading of Psalm 137 DANIEL SIMANGO (NORTH-WEST UNIVERSITY) ABSTRACT The purpose of this article is to carry out a thorough exegetical study of Ps 137 in order to grasp its content, context and theological implications. The basic hypothesis of this study is that Ps 137 can be best understood when the text is thoroughly analysed. Therefore, in this article, Ps 137 will be read in its total context (i.e. historical setting, life-setting and canonical setting) and its literary genre. The article concludes by discussing the imprecatory implications and message of Ps 137 to the followers of YHWH. KEYWORDS: Psalm 137; Exegetical Study; Imprecatory Psalms; Imprecation. A INTRODUCTION Psalm 137 is one of the best known imprecatory psalms that focus on the traumatic experience of exile in Babylon. The psalm reveals the sufferings and sentiments of the people who probably experienced at first hand the grievous days of the conquest and destruction of Jerusalem in 587 BCE and who shared the burden of the Babylonian captivity after their return to their homeland. At the sight of the ruined city and the temple, the psalmist vents with passionate intensity his deep love for Zion as he recalls the distress of alienation from their sanctuary. Therefore, this psalm touches the raw nerve of Israel’s faith. The poem commences with the melancholy recollection of the destruction of the temple and Jerusalem which caused the Israelite captives to mourn and stop playing their musical instruments. The Babylonian masters asked the captives to join them in the mockery of YHWH.

  • A New English Translation of the Septuagint. 31 Psalms of Salomon
    31-PsS-NETS-4.qxd 11/10/2009 10:39 PM Page 763 PSALMS OF SALOMON TO THE READER EDITION OF THE GREEK TEXT Since no critical edition of the Psalms of Salomon’s (PsSal) Greek text is available at the present time, the NETS translation is based on the edition of Alfred Rahlfs (Septuaginta. Id est Vetus Testamentum graece iuxta LXX interpretes, 2 vols. [Stuttgart: Württembergische Bibelanstalt, 1935]). Rahlfs’s text is, for the most part, a reprint of the edition of Oscar von Gebhardt (Die Psalmen Salomo’s zum ersten Male mit Benutzung der Athoshandschriften und des Codex Casanatensis [Leipzig: J. C. Hinrichs, 1895]). Rahlfs frequently incorpo- rated many of von Gebhardt’s conjectural emendations, which are referred to in Rahlfs’ text by the siglum “Gebh.” The remaining conjectural emendations included in Rahlfs’ Greek text are largely derived from the edition of Henry B. Swete (The Psalms of Solomon with the Greek Fragments of the Book of Enoch [Cam- bridge: Cambridge University Press, 1899]) and are indicated in Rahlfs’ notes by the siglum “Sw.” This book is basically a reprint of Swete’s earlier edition of the Greek text of PsSal (The Old Testament in Greek According to the Septuagint [vol. 3; Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1894] 765–787), but it in- corporates readings from three new manuscripts that were included in von Gebhardt’s text. In one in- stance (17.32), Rahlfs adopted the suggestion first proposed in 1870 by A. Carrière (De Psalterio Salomo- nis disquistionem historico-criticam scripsit [Strasbourg]) that xristo_j ku/rioj, which is preserved in all of PsSal’s manuscripts, should be emended to xristo_j kuri?/ou.
