Psalms: An Online Bible Study
Zoom | September 12 - October 17 | 7:30 pm Eastern | 6 Sessions
The Psalms - perhaps the most beloved book of the Bible what Calvin called “An Anatomy of all the Parts of the Soul.” Traditionally attributed to King David the Psalms in fact represent hundreds of years’ worth of ancient Israelite reflections on joy and loss on fear and faith. In these six sessions we will look at the Psalms from a few different angles: their cultural and historical origins the various literary genres they include the way that biblical poetry is constructed and communicates and more. Join us as we explore the Psalms from antiquity to today.
The six sessions will occur on September 12, 19, 26, October 3, 10, and 17. After attending all six sessions participants will receive a Certificate of Participation.
