Reflection on Psalms…

Introduction 1 – The Book of Psalms

The book of Psalms is a book for all seasons; the Psalms touch a wide range of human emotions and experiences. They cover joy and the struggle of life, resentment and God’s silence, praise and gladness, in fact it’s all there. The Psalms can be raw, uncompromising yet also soothing and comforting. Within some traditions the book of Psalms is called the Psalter and has been used as a prayer book for over 2000 years. While we refer to the book of Psalms, it is in fact five books:

Book 2 42–72
Book 3 73–89
Book 4 90–106
Book 5 107–150
