A Prism of Song: Seeing the Old Testament through the Psalms
A Prism of Song looks at the Old Testament through the lens of the Book of Psalms.

The musicality and artistic quality of the psalms add depth to these themes and make them an inspiring and beautiful starting point from which to explore the broader biblical narrative. This book can serve as an excellent introduction to the Old Testament in a classroom setting or a faith formation class within a church.

The Narrative Effect of Book IV of the Hebrew Psalter (Studies in Biblical Literature)
The Narrative Effect of Book IV of the Hebrew Psalter takes seriously the canonical form to the text and suggests that there is a narrative effect that occurs as a reader of the Hebrew Bible encounters the canonical Psalter. Rather than reading the book of Psalms as an anthology, the reader can find lexical and thematic connections within the text that tell a story. The turning point of that story comes in Book IV (Psalms 90-106) when the text emphasizes the kingship of YHWH rather than David and a return to the covenant of Moses.
