Unexpected Discord In The Psalms- book 4 - Psalm 90 though 106 version 7 pp...Michael Scaman
Book 2 and 3 ended very differently to eachother. Book 2 ended with an idylic future. Book 3 ended with a present crisis. The key changes and discord continues in book 4.
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms- book 4 - Psalm 90 though 106 version 6 pp...Michael Scaman
Psalms book 4 stands in contrast with books 2 which ended with an idylic future and book 3 which ends in a present crisis
The meek will inherit the earth as claimed in Psalm book 1 but not yet.
First there are trials and travails of this life and a retrospective and pro-spective in Book 4.
Psalms book 4: Wandering songs for the travels and travails of lifeMichael Scaman
Songs for wandering (even at times through the valley of the shadow of death) led by the good shepherd, the King, having a table prepared in the presence of my enemies. Book 4 of the psalms begins with a voice from the deep past and a prayer of Moses. Moses prays "Teach us to number our days" and this book many consider poetically to match the themes of Numbers which recounted the wanderings in the dessert for forty years.
The Center of book 4 are the enthronement Psalms, by tradition one or more have been written by Hezekiah Adjacent images of Psalms 23 (the good shepherd leading believers through the valley of the shadow of death, spreading a table in the presence of their enemies) and Psalm 24 (the king of glory) come back expansively in book 4 with shepherd images bracketing calls to worship the king who reigns. Psalms 93 though 100
The ending include a series of Psalms quoted in the book of Hebrews as part of an argument that Jesus is better than the angels: Psalm 102, 103 and 104.
The final two Psalms are historical Psalms 105 and 106 ( the only other Psalm ususally classified as a history recounting (historical) Psalm is 78 from book 3.
We are concerned here with the flow of thought and the outline

Book 4 of Psalms . Lots of contrasts. The sheperd king leads us through the trials and trails of life in this book which is a poetic takeoff on the book of Nubers
The main parts of Psalms book 5
Poetically this is poetically like Deuteronomy which was the last month of Moses life and as the promised land was about ot be entered
Book 5 of the Psalms can be looked at as songs of longing of going home, home ultimately being heaven
The main parts being, the Hallal passover psalms, the psalms of ascent, David's last run of Psalms where we are moved from laying down are harps and weeping to all kings singing of God and a final example of Davids praise and one prase Psalm for each book as a fitting end.
The Super Epic Psalms - Book 4 (Psalms 102, 103, 104, 105, 106)Michael Scaman
Two of these Psalms are used in the book of Hebrews as argument that Jesus is better than the angels
Psalms 102, 103, 104, 105, 106
Book 4 of Psalms is wandering in the wilderness, sojourning through life looking to the promised land
The praise of the final Psalms are prelude to coming home, entering the promised land in Book 5
God’s faithfulness is contrasted with the unfaithfulness of His people and God’s mercy is displayed
This is an early version, please feel free to comment as it is 'a work in progress'
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms- book 5 - Psalm 107 though 150 version 8 p...Michael Scaman
Psalm book 5 is on the theme 'Coming Home' In prior books of Psalms the meek would inherit the earth but found themselves unfaithful and in exile. Now there is a redemptive resolution.
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms- book 5 - Psalm 107 though 150 version 7 p...Michael Scaman
Psalms book 5 is on the theme 'Coming home" or entering te promised land. Poetically Deuteronomy.
Not only sharing the same overarching theme, but similar structure.
There are 7 sets fo Acrostic psalms in the book of psalms:
In book 1 they are Psalms 9,10 (a pair) , 25, 34 and 37
In book 5 they are 111,112 (a pair), 119 and 145.
They are layed out in the Psalms acrostically to be easily learned and contain important lessons to take to heart.
Very likely these Psalms were written in a way to be memorized.
They also tend to make boundaries of sections, Psalm 119 being between the (Passover deliverance) hallal Psalms and the (Jerusalem Journey to the temple) Psalms of Ascent for example
Climbing the mountain of God with help from the short PsalmsMichael Scaman
A short discussion on the shortest of Psalms
Psalms 15, 43, 70, 93, 100, 123, 125, 127, 131, 133, 134, 117
The tiny Psalms of the book of Psalms are discussed
We divide them into 5 groups and try to explain how they might give some dramatic punch to some ideas due to being terse. Short being often more powerful.
There are two reasons for the title. First , 7 or 10 of the shortest Psalms concern climbing the mountain of God or journeying up toward Mount Zion in Jerusalem to worship. Psalms 15 with 5 verses bring the first 'Who shall ascend the mount of God' and Psalms 121 through 134 have 6 more 3 or 4 verse Psalms makes 7 of the smallest 10 Psalms.
Second, the short Psalms tend to touch on or be related to the issues brought up in the sermon on the mount. Bring poor, mourning, hungering for righteousness, mercy, living in peace, being persecuted for His name sake.
For these reasons we can say the short Psalms help climb the mountain of God.
A short psalm of thanksgiving - the old 100.
The enthronement Psalms end with a short Psalm titled 'A Psalm of Thanksgiving' God's character is drawn from to base the thanks on and uses 6 imperatives in worship. Corporate worship is emphasized. Where the previous Psalm 99 may have emphasized God's holiness, Psalm 100 emphasizes God's goodness.
The emphasis is on group worship. There are two rounds of emotional exaltation grounded in who God is. The praise here is public, expressed out loud and in a corporate setting rather than an individual experience.
After this Psalm will be an application Psalm, in Psalm 101 and then a series of Psalms the book of Hebrews will use as argument that Jesus is better than the angels, starting with Psalm 102 which is a prayer of an afflicted one as he pours out his complaint to the Lord, perhaps a prayer that could be made to Jesus but not to any mere angel.
'Holy' in the Psalms - What's so Important to God That It's Tied to His Ch...Michael Scaman
'Holy' in the psalms - what's most important to God that it's tied to his character
The use of the word holy in the book of Psalms.
102 verses that use the word holy.
The only attribute of God punched three times is Holy
with angels crying in Isaiah "'Holy! holy! holy"
We examine how the word is used in the Psalms
The flow, major themes and character of Psalms Book 2: Psalms 42-72.
Where book 1 had psalms that were personal in nature, book 2 tends to concern community. Many consider Book 2 to be poetically like Exodus. Many of the authors in Book 2 and 3 are Levites.
Songs from the 'Sons of Korah' Open the book.
Believers may be a bit like 'the sons of Korah' who should be 'in the grave' but have been delivered. Being delivered does not preclude struggles or even persecution.
Psalm 14 comes back expansively as a block of five psalms on judgement and forgiveness. Jesus like Solomon reign is expansive. Solomon, poetically so, Jesus literally so.
Asaph has one Psalm. Asaph probably being Asaph the seer from the time of David who led a group of Levites to minister before the Ark on Mt Zion when it was moved from the house of Obed Edom the Gittite after recovery from the Philistines.
One Psalm is dedicated to Jeduthun

Following the MIC DROP mountain peak high which ends Psalms book 2, Psalm book 3 opens with a lament over national destruction and yet beings 'surefly God is good to Israel'
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms - Psalm 1 though 41 version 10 ppt PDF.pdfMichael Scaman
David's first book of Psalms was Psalms 1 through 41. Poetically like Genesis. It begins with a man who is like a tree of life and ends with a man like Joseph who is betrayed. Also like Genesis there is the inheritance of the land. The meek inherit the earth, in the Son, in God.

Following the mountaintop experience of the ending of book 2. The mic drop psalm 72 is followed by a crisis of faith in book 3, but begins 'surely God is good to Israel'
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms - Psalm 42 though 72 version 11 ppt pdf.pdfMichael Scaman
Psalms book 2: Ps 42 to 72 has Jesus flipping the script from his troubles more than the hairs of His head to a comfort the God knows the hairs on your head. Many key changes and contrasts explored here.
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms - Psalm 42 though 72 version 1 ppt pdf.pdfMichael Scaman
Book1 of Psalms is poetically like Genesis. It starts with a man who is like a tree of life and ends wit a man who is betrayed like Joseph. Jesus quotes the final Psalm at the last supper.
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms - Psalm 1 though 41 version 10 ppt PDF.pdfMichael Scaman
The book of Pslams has a flow, sometimes unexpected. We see a praise in the midst of laments or a lament in the midst of praises. Why? Like a musical work where discord resolves to beauty some examples given here.
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms - Psalm 1 though 41 version 4 ppt.pptxMichael Scaman
In the flow of the Psalms we might see a run of praises then a seemingly out of place lament. Why? We might see the opposite as well. This is a look at the flow of Psalms book 1, Psalms 1-41.
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms - Psalm 1 though 41 version 3 ppt pdf.pdfMichael Scaman
Psalms book 1 is David's first Psalm book. Psalms 1 through 41. Some laments seem out of place with praises and visa versa. However, te discord resolves to a picture of Jesus
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms: part 2 - Psalm 15 though 25 Michael Scaman
The flow of Psalms in Psalm 14 though 25, particularly with a view to key changes. Who can climb the mountain of God, then there is a literary mountain, a chiasm from 15 though 24.
Unexpected Discord In The Flow of Psalms: part 1 - Psalms 1 though 14 Michael Scaman
Places in the Psalms where we see unexpected contrasts in the flow of Psalms. For example we might go unexpectedly from rejoicing to lamenting. Psalms 1- Psalms 14 which is the start of Psalms book 1, Psalms 1 through 41.
The Son inherits the nations in Psalm 2 is contrasted with David on the run from his son in Psalm 3.
The man in Psalm 8 ruling in a special place in creation is contrasted with the man of the earth is Psalms 9 and 10 with laments following how long will evil go on and if indeed no one is righteous, no not one, then who can climb the mountain of God and dwell in His tent?
We compare this set of Psalms with the rest of Book 1. The son inherits the earth in Psalm 2. The meek inherits the earth in Psalm 37. We see Psalm book 1 as a literary parallel to Genesis where Psalm book 1 starts with a man who is like a tree of life and ends with a man like Joseph who is betrayed to save the World.
We see some themes come back later in Psalms such as "I am a green tree" in Psalm 52 or "there is no one good no not one", Psalm 14 repeated very closely in Psalm 53
2 Peter 3: Because some scriptures are hard to understand and some will force them to say things God never intended, Peter warns us to take care.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
The Book of Joshua is the sixth book in the Hebrew Bible and the Old Testament, and is the first book of the Deuteronomistic history, the story of Israel from the conquest of Canaan to the Babylonian exile.

Man is unfaithful so who can declare God’s deeds?

God understand justice?
Psalms 106
A recounting of Israel’s
unfaithfulness in history.
Who can proclaim the deeds of God then?
No one unless God makes them
just and right.
Psalms 105
A recounting of God’s
faithfulness in history
57. Those who can proclaim the deeds of God
are those who understand justice and do rightly
And how? The Messiah will bring justice to
the world
Psalm 106:
2 Who can proclaim the mighty acts of the Lord
or fully declare his praise?
3
Blessed are those who act justly,
who always do what is right.
Isaiah 42:3, 4
A bruised reed he will not break, and a
smoldering wick he will not snuff out. In
faithfulness he will bring forth justice;
he will not falter or be discouraged till he
establishes justice on earth. In his teaching the
islands will put their hope.”

bringing them home
Book 5 will be bookended by this
redemption in psalm 107
then psalms 146, 147 which add
And some more bridges connecting
Psalms book 4 and book 5
healing the broken hearted
opening blind eyes
60. Book 4 ends
with a problem
Sinners are destroyed at the end of Ps 104
and Ps 106 recounts a history of unfaithfulness
of Israel
Who is left who is just and right who
will declare the deeds of God?
61. Book 4 ends
with a problem
Who can proclaim God’s deeds?
This is commanded in Ps 105
but only those who understand justice and do
rightly can do it in Ps 106
Who can do it as
Israel’s unfaithfulness
is recounted in Ps 106?
62. Book 4 ends
with a problem
So, how will Israel be saved redeemed or restored?
(as Moses prayed in Ps 90
and as prayed in Ps 106)
63. The wanderings in the wilderness
of Book 4
Coming home to
the promised land in book 5
And a bridge connecting
Psalms book 4 and book 5
64. The answer will rest on God
The Messiah will come in the spirit
of Isaiah 61 and bring the home,
freeing the captives, healing broken hearted,
opening blind eyes

scripture
