Using the “digital turn” as a starting point, the symposium focused on how and why materiality should be a more sig- nificant component of our reflection on the sacred texts of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The symposium was part of a larger project (“From Scrolls to Scroll- ing: Sacred Texts, Materiality, and Dynamic Media Cultures”) that was funded by the Irish Research Council New Foundations Scheme, and I am immensely grateful to the Research Council for their support. This project included collab- oration with colleagues from the University of Heidelberg and the Material Text Cultures research project; I offer sincere thanks to Professor Jan Christian Gertz, Dr Friederike Schücking-Jungblut, and Dr Anna Krauß for the hospitality that was shown during a research visit to Heidelberg. Further financial and administrative support for the symposium came from the DCU School of Theology, Philosophy, and Music, and special thanks are due to Dr Ethna Regan, Dr Garrick Allen, and Dr Jonathan Kearney for their support and encouragement. Additional financial support for the publication of this volume was provided by the DCU Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, for

  • Psalm 38 Office of Readings Friday Week 2 Along with Psalms 6, 32, 51, 102, 130 and 143, This Is Numbered Among the Peniten- Tial Psalms
    Psalm 38 Office of Readings Friday Week 2 Along with Psalms 6, 32, 51, 102, 130 and 143, this is numbered among the peniten- tial psalms. The psalmist has sinned (verses 3-4 and 18), but cries out to God not to leave him in such terrible physical and mental anguish. He assumes, according to the mentality of the time, that suffering is willed by God, and therefore must be a form of punishment for sin. He asks forgiveness, but insists that those who are maligning him are acting unjustly (verses 19-20). The title reads: ‘A Psalm* of David, for the memorial offering’, indicating its cultic setting. Psalm 6 opens in the same way. The psalmist is not 1YHWH*, rebuke me but objecting against being rebuked and disciplined, but not in your anger*; disci- against the extent of it, expressed here in terms of an- pline me but not in your ger. See the article ‘Anger’ in the Introduction. wrath. The psalmist begins by describing his terrible suffer- 2For your arrows have ings.

The arrows of the Almighty are in me; my spirit drinks their poison; the terrors of God are arrayed against me. – Job 6:4 He bent his bow and set me as a mark for his arrow. – Lamentations 3:12 This psalm is unusual in the power of its description of 3There is no part of my suffering. As noted above, he assumes that his condi- flesh* that is not wound- tion has its origin in his sin.

  • 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.

  • The Importance of the Dead Sea Scrolls for the Study of the Explicit Quotations in Ad Hebraeos

  • Psalms 112-113 Page 1 of 7 M.K
    Psalms 112-113 page 1! of !7 M.K. Scanlan Psalm 112 • Psalm 112 is a companion Psalm to Psalm 111. • It is also an acrostic Psalm with each verse or sentence beginning with a consecutive letter of the Hebrew alphabet. • This is one of the “hallel” psalms or Psalms of praise that either begins with or ends with “hallelujah!” • Psalm 111 ends with: (V: 10) Psalm 111:10 “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; a good understanding have all those who do His commandments. His praise endures forever.” • Psalm 111 ends with the reverence or fear of the Lord and the doing of His commandments. • Psalm 112 talks about the man who has learned what it is to stand in the awe and reverence of God, it’s about that man who has committed himself to obeying God and doing His commandments. V: 1 Praise the Lord! Hallelujah! Once again this could be both a proclamation and or an exhortation. • Blessed, or “Oh how happy” is the man who fears the Lord - why? Because if you learn to fear the Lord truly, you will ultimately end up getting saved! Proverbs 14:27 “The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life, to turn one away from the snares of death.” Proverbs 19:23 “The fear of the Lord leads to life,…” • If we fear God, then we don’t need to fear anything, or anyone else! Ecclesiastes 12:13 “Fear God and keep His commandments, for this is the whole duty of man.” • The antidote to depression, to un-happiness, anxiety, and fear - is to praise the Lord, to fear Him, and to joyfully be obedient to what He’s instructed us to do.

  • Igor Stravinsky's “Symphony of Psalms” – a Testimony of the Composer's Faith
    Bulletin of the Transilvania University of Braşov Series VIII: Performing Arts • Vol. 9 (58) No. 2 - 2016 Igor Stravinsky’s “Symphony of Psalms” – a testimony of the composer’s faith Petruţa-Maria COROIU 1, Alexandra BELIBOU2 Abstract: In the musical landscape of the first half of the 20th century, Igor Stravinsky (1882- 1971) asserted himself as a musician who undermined the normative values of the elements in the musical discourse. His creations were regarded from an analytical perspective in opposition with Arnold Schonberg’s music, the musical critics trying to limit the compositional amendments of the 20th century to the scores of the two composers. We find this view unjust, the musical wealth of the 20th century stemming precisely from the multiple meanings framed within various compositional patterns by the composers which music history placed among the unforgettable ones. Key-words: faith, modernity, psalm, composition, style 1. Preliminary considerations In the musical landscape of the first half of the 20th century, Igor Stravinsky (1882- 1971) asserted himself as a musician who undermined the normative values of the elements in the musical discourse. His creations were regarded from an analytical perspective in opposition with Arnold Schonberg’s music, the musical critics trying to limit the compositional amendments of the 20th century to the scores of the two composers. We find this view unjust, the musical wealth of the 20th century stemming precisely from the multiple meanings framed within various compositional patterns by the composers which music history placed among the unforgettable ones. It is worth noting that Stravinsky and Schonberg “constitute the poles towards gravitate the tendencies of the other composers of the century” (Vlad 1967, 7) (our translation).

  • Psalms 111–112: Big Story, Little Story
    religions Article Psalms 111–112: Big Story, Little Story Jack Collins Old Testament, Covenant Theological Seminary, 12330 Conway Road, St Louis, MO 63141, USA; [email protected] Academic Editors: Katharine J. Dell and Arthur J. Keefer Received: 10 May 2016; Accepted: 11 August 2016; Published: 5 September 2016 Abstract: This study argues that the juxtaposition of Psalms 111–112 offers wisdom for life. Psalm 111, in stressing God’s mighty deeds of redemption for his people, focuses on the “big story” for the whole people; Psalm 112, in stressing “wisdom,” encourages each member of God’s people in a day-to-day walk, a “little story,” that contributes to the big story of the whole people. Keywords: Proverbs; Psalms; Wisdom; story; community 1. Introduction To the larger consideration of how, if at all, Biblical wisdom literature provides resources for living in the contemporary world, I will focus on a small portion of the Psalms, namely Psalms 111–112 [1]. I write as a Christian, with an interest in how careful academic study might inform Christian practice. These two psalms are of quite different types. Psalm 111 celebrates the great works that the Lord has done: “he sent redemption to his people” (111:9). Psalm 112 celebrates the blessedness of the person “who fears the LORD” (112:1): “it is well with” such a person (112:5). Psalm 111 looks at the “big picture,” the deeds that the Lord has done for his “people,” that is, for the corporate entity. Psalm 112 attends primarily to the “smaller picture,” the conduct and effects of particular persons within the people.

  • 4 Psalms of Repentance
    PSALMS OF REPENTANCE Psalm 6 Pattern for Repentance I. The Cry (1-2) Psalm 6:1 To the chief Musician on Neginoth upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David. O LORD, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure. 2 Have mercy upon me, O LORD; for I am weak: O LORD, heal me; for my bones are vexed. II. The Care of God’s Delay (3-7) Psalm 6:3 My soul is also sore vexed: but thou, O LORD, how long? 4 Return, O LORD, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies' sake. 5 For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks? 6 I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears. 7 Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all mine enemies. III. The Cure (8-10) Psalm 6:8 Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the LORD hath heard the voice of my weeping. 9 The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer. 10 Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly. Psalm 32 Living Victoriously I. The Blessedness of Guilt-free Living (1-2) Psalm 32:1 A Psalm of David, Maschil. Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. 2 Blessed is the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile.

  • Editor's Notes for Beatus Vir
    Editor’s Notes for Beatus Vir a 4 Beatus vir ("Blessed is the man” or “Happy are those”) are the first words in the Latin Vulgate Bible of both Psalm 1 and Psalm 112 (in the general modern numbering; it is Psalm 111 in the Vulgate). In each case, the words are used to refer to frequent and significant uses of these psalms in art, although the two psalms are prominent in different fields, art in the case of Psalm 1 and music in the case of Psalm 112. True to that tradition, Eslava used Psalm 112 for this piece, and it is the second version I have come across in my transcriptions of his work. Compare this to https://musescore.com/rebecca_rufin/beatus-vir-psalm-112-blessed-is-the-man or as also found in https://hilarioneslava.org/music/. This beautiful rendering of Beatus Vir is one of five choral works contained in a handwritten journal by Eslava. Although the title specifically reads “Beatus Vir a 4”, there are clearly eight singing parts that would appear to represent a double choir at first glance. No solo parts are formally indicated, but I surmise from the title that the first choir was most likely intended to be for solo voices. To the best of my knowledge, none of the works in this particular journal were ever formally published, and they all seem to lack composer’s instructions that would have been necessary to create the intended performance. Therefore, this work was likely never performed except under the direction of Eslava himself, who would have provided such instruction personally.

  • The Abcs of Praise by Pastor Jason Van Bemmel Praise the LORD! I Will
    1 The ABCs of Praise by Pastor Jason Van Bemmel Praise the LORD! I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart, in the company of the upright, in the congregation. 2 Great are the works of the LORD, studied by all who delight in them. 3 Full of splendor and majesty is his work, and his righteousness endures forever. 4 He has caused his wondrous works to be remembered; the LORD is gracious and merciful. 5 He provides food for those who fear him; he remembers his covenant forever. 6 He has shown his people the power of his works, in giving them the inheritance of the nations. 7 The works of his hands are faithful and just; all his precepts are trustworthy; 8 they are established forever and ever, to be performed with faithfulness and uprightness. 9 He sent redemption to his people; he has commanded his covenant forever. Holy and awesome is his name! 10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; all those who practice it have a good understanding. His praise endures forever! – Psalm 111, ESV Introduction: Alphabet of Praise Wouldn’t it be neat to know what songs Jesus sang in worship, as He was growing up and as a man in ancient Israel? Well, with the psalms were learning this week and next, we have come to two psalms that Jesus almost certainly sang repeatedly in His life. Psalm 111 is an alphabetic acrostic poem. It has 22 lines, not counting the opening “Praise the LORD.” These 22 lines each begin with the letters of the Hebrew alphabet in order.
