The Songs of Ascents and Eight Last Davidic Psalms : Discussion Bible Studies in Psalms 120 to 145 Paperback
by Legg David Legg
Part of the Small Group Bible Studies series
Paperback
Description
26 discussion Bible studies for use in small groups or by individuals, covering all of psalms 120 to 145. Studies are based on the NIV 2011 translation with reference to the original language, but will work just as well with other Bible translations. These later psalms in Book V of the Psalter are rarely studied, but contain a wealth of wisdom, theology and worship. Each study should take less than an hour unless the group is large. Studies include appropriate songs to sing, questions for the group to discuss, and sufficient background information and illustrations to allow the group leader to run stimulating, informative and God-centred Bible studies. Many of the questions are practical applications, i.e. 'What should we do or believe now that we understand this psalm better? 'The Songs of Ascent are psalms 120 to 134. They are thought be associated with the old covenant triannual pilgrimages up to Jerusalem. Sometimes, psalms 120 to 136 are known collectively as the Great Hallel; sometimes, just Psalm 136 on its own is also called the Great Hallel because of its refrain, 'His love endures for ever'. The Great Hallel is followed by the agonising exilic psalm, 137, 'By the rivers of Babylon'. Finally, there is a set of psalms known as the 'Eight Last Davidic Psalms', 138 to 145. Buy one copy for each small group member to give each of them a copy to write notes in and keep.
This encourages regular attendance at meetings!
