The Ethics of the Psalms

Sunday, September 23, 2012
The Seventeenth Sunday After Pentecost
10:00 a.m. - 10:45 a.m.

What is the ethical content of the Psalms, and how is their instruction conveyed? These are the questions behind the new Sunday class, “The Ethics of the Psalms,” which begins September 16. Visitors welcome any Sunday at 10 a.m. on the 5th floor.

Today’s topic involves the structure of the Psalter, the particular themes of some of its “books,” and a bit of the history of the critical scholars and their questions of when the psalms were written, by whom, and for what purpose; and then why were they arranged as we have them?
