When comparing Mary Sidney’s Psalm to the Coverdale version, one must…

The perfect verb tense, expressing a past action with continuing results, shows that God always intimately knows the hearts and minds of all people (Keil 809). Yet, the…

Each Psalm bears a differing mood and feel, and if recognized and enhanced by a compatible music style, it results in a harmonious composition. This brilliant agreement between the literature and music honors the Lord through its ordered nature.

The psalms are one of the more interactive portions of the bible. I say this because there is room for reflection and interpretation from the reader.

The use of poetry in these portions of the bible allow the reader some creative analysis, which carries higher complexity and understanding of the readings. The topics of these poetic writings assigned are diverse, yet manage to remain around similar themes.…
