Looking forward to this I went to seminary and church with Dr. Witt for several years. Andy helped me discover my love of the Hebrew language and the Old Testament.
❤THE PSALMS! God's hymnal for His people, covering all aspects of life! We need to sing more of them! Thank you!😊📖🙏🎹🎼🎵🎶🎷🪗🎸🎺🎻🪕🥁🪘PSALM 150 Praise Him with instruments and dancing!😃
I love the point of the repetition in Psalms being important and how it is probably intentional for our learning. As a Kindergarten teacher, I use repetition in my class to keep reminding my students of the skills they have learned. We are always reviewing and reviewing and reviewing. That point resonated with me.
This is an amazing video! I come from a Reformed church and I'm thankful we still have preserved the Christian / Reformation practice of singing the psalms in a psalter. I just hope more of my Christian brothers are able to have this opportunity to sing the psalms in worship, either through a psalter or in a contemporary rendering!
The algorithm suggested I might want a dojo in my life. I'm not sure why. Maybe because I've got a lot of modern Scottish metrical psalms on my channel or maybe because I've been listening to Christopher Ash and Psalms: Layer by Layer recently.
I'm about 15 minutes in. I also do lament the fact that we don't have the original melodies. That's why I was stunned when I started hearing people harp (ha!) on the fact that their church "sings the Psalms." No, you don't. You sing them according to whatever modern tunes were made up for them. We do not have the original tunes because music was not written down, much less recorded. I'm not sure why people can't seem to grasp this obvious point. Anyway, I would assume on that Day, we will hear those original melodies. I cannot wait!
My favorite Bible trick is to tell the unsuspecting heathen (joking) you can find Psalms every time. Hint: Psalms are found exactly in the middle Signed Dad
Is it me, or does anyone else think that the CSB doesn't fo justice to the "parallel verses" in the psalms? Holman is knocking Bible production out of the park: paper, style, layout. But, their interpretation of the Psalms is lacking a certain "je ne sais quoi," IMO.
@@amyk6403 I haven't noticed that anymore than any other modern translation, honestly. But now that you mention it I will have to look more closely in my travel Bible and Baker Illustrated to see if that's the case.
@@DiscipleDojo If it doesn't really obscure it, it might be that the CSB language doesn't "speak to me." Maybe the vocabulary is too simple, or the phrasing lacks poetic artistry. Not sure. I love my CSB study Bible and Holy Land Illustrated. I love Holman's design and paper choices a lot! But, I don't "read" them. Just the notes. I prefer the NIV. I wish zondervan would take a clue from Holman and step it up. Zondervan: if you're reading this...from an ex-graphic artist Increase the leading in your typesetting! Some of us are old.

Hold up! CS Lewis believed the imprecatory Psalms were not inspired? What?! I guess I'm a big meanie. It never occurred to me that we were supposed to have a problem with them, until online life came along and I started seeing that. We are to LONG for God's justice and judgment of evil. And since evil is caused by people, that includes them. I long for that more each day as I see our wicked world. Do I prefer that these people repent? Absolutely! That must always be our desire and prayer. But if they refuse, we should have no problem longing for God to deal with them. I refuse to apologize for that.

Yes, yes, yes! Psalms are songs to be sang out. To hear *who's* voice they may be would be incredibly insightful.
Psalms 42 and 43 are combined in the finnish translations, also.
And maskil is translated as a reflectionary hymn.

We can't sing the original ones, since (obviously) we don't have the tunes. I wish we did!
Great insights. Learned alot about the Psalms I didn't know. Thank you both. 👍

@@trystwithchrist the algorithm works in mysterious ways...
I am going through the Psalms at the moment, so this is highly appreciated, Thank you.
Thankyou for this stream,God bless 🙌
Psalm 42 is one of my favorites!
Thank you.

150 Psalms if you're Catholic, 151 Psalms if you're Orthodox. 15:15

4X trying to post a comment these aggravators at yt WILL NOT let it go through. It's not even anything remotely "controversial"!
Any book that says a donkey can talk is fantasy
@@MikeTMike there are no talking donkeys in Psalms.
@DiscipleDojo
Psalms is in the Bible, is it not?
Wrong genre for sure. This guy must be confused.
I see a bunch of donkeys commenting around here. How's that different? 😆
@@johnsonc8
Genre? LMAO 🤣
Aka "how to reinforce your irrational delusional bias"
@@dukejivetalker7541 that probably sounded a lot cooler in your head.
Kind of like what you are doing now.
And yet you decided to take time out of your day to comment against said "bias." 🤷😅
