Scripture: One Book at a Time

 

The whole of Sacred Scripture is a single narrative that promises and points to Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior of the World. It is an epic story, the greatest ever told, and told "one book at a time." Each book makes it contribution to the narrative as God reveals God's self to us and his desire that all be saved.

Lesson 20: The Book of Psalms

The Psalms

The Book of Psalms contains 150 individual psalms authored over the centuries – some by King David, others.by Temple choir directors, some anonymous, some very short (2 verses), other quite long (76 verses). They are hymns of praise, laments, joy, thanksgiving and more. …and they are all put into one “book” with a grand scheme and message in mind.
