Download or read book Seeing and Hearing God with the Psalms written by Raymond Jacques Tournay and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This investigation into the prophetic dimension of the Psalms shows how the postexilic period and especially the world of the Chronicler around 300 BCE provide the main setting for the Psalms, even royal psalms. The Levitical singers of the Second Temple 'made up for the silence of the classical prophets': an idealized David, musician and prophet, is depicted as leader of the cultic prophets and of the entire inspired community. In this way theophanic descriptions and oracular material in the style of the classical prophets were developed and preserved through the Psalms.

Download or read book The Wisdom of God written by Nancy Guthrie and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2012-02-29 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 10-week study of Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and the Song of Solomon mines the Wisdom Literature not only for wise principles for living, but also for the wise person these books point to through their drama, poetry, proverb, and song. In her accessible and authentic style, Nancy Guthrie focuses on seeing Jesus in the Old Testament instead of emphasizing works-based moralism. She presents clear commentary and contemporary application of gospel truths, speaking directly to issues such as repentance, submission, happiness, and sexuality. Each weekly lesson includes questions for personal study, a contemporary teaching chapter that emphasizes how the passage fits into the bigger story of redemptive history, a brief section on how the passage uniquely points to what is yet to come at the consummation of Christ's kingdom, and a leader's guide for group discussion.

Download or read book Four Approaches to the Book of Psalms written by Uriel Simon and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uriel Simon describes the fascinating controversy that raged from the tenth to the twelfth centuries regarding the theological status and literary genre of the Psalms. Saadiah Gaon, who initiated the controversy, claimed that the Psalter was a second Torah—the Lord's word to David—and by no means man's prayer to God. Salmon ben Yerucham and Yefet ben Ali insisted on the Karaite view that the Book of Psalms was the prophetic common prayerbook of Israel. Totally opposing both of these concepts, Rabbi Moses Ibn Giqatilah regarded the Psalms as non-prophetic prayers authored by different poets, beginning with David and ending with the captive Levites in the Babylonian exile. Finally, Rabbi Abraham Ibn Ezra reverted to the belief held by the Talmudic sages—that the Psalms were Israel's divinely inspired and most sacred poetry. The book also includes the full text of a previously unknown introduction to Ibn Ezra's lost commentary on the Psalms, which is much more elaborate and revealing than the introduction to his familiar classical commentary.

Download or read book Psalms written by James Luther Mays and published by Westminster John Knox Press. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 477 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Psalms have a double identity. They are scripture and liturgy. They compose a book of the Bible and are found in our hymnals and books of worship and prayer. When we think of them in historical perspective, another identity emerges. They are the liturgical poetry of ancient Israel, texts with a history of composition and use before they became scripture. A commentary in this Interpretation series needs to keep all three identities in view. That puts some strain on the commentator's task. The attempt to interpret the Psalms in awareness of the depth in their identity explains some things about the commentary and its writing. - Preface.
Download or read book Los Profetas Mayores written by Big Dream Ministries and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los cinco libros de Los Profetas Mayores (Isaías, Jeremías, Lamentaciones, Ezequiel Y Daniel)cubren un período significativo y presentan una amplia serie de mensajes. Isaías habló a la nación de Judá alrededor de 150 años antes de su exilio a Babilonia y les hizo un llamado para ser fieles a Dios. Jeremías clamó a ese mismo pueblo cuando estaban al borde del exilio, implorándoles por su arrepentimiento. Lamentaciones, escrito por Jeremías, presenta un canto fúnebre al ir Judá al exilio. Los dos últimos profetas mayores, Ezequiel y Daniel, hablaron y escribie- ron para el pueblo en el exilio, animándolos a recordar que Dios seguía aún en control y que finalmente restauraría la fortuna espiritual de Su disciplinada nación.Tres de estos cinco libros son bastante extensos y a veces, todos ellos, pueden ser difíciles de entender. Sin embargo, la dedicación en tiempo y esfuerzo para tratar de entender estos escritos pagará grandes dividendos. Se ha dicho que ninguna otra sección en la Biblia ofrece una figura de Dios tan majestuosa y altamente exaltada. Su soberanía es increíble, Su gloria es impresionante, y leyendo estos libros, nuestra fe encuentra nuevos niveles más profundos de confianza.
