Melanchthon Quote about Prayer Leave a comment
Commenting on Matthew 22:23-33, Phillip Melanchthon in his Annotationes et Conciones said this, which I found encouraging:
…in your prayers faith should always be aroused, prayers which you ask not of an idle God, but one who most certainly desires to care, to hear, to help, to save, if you believe in His Son.
Psalm 6 Leave a comment
I was talking to my Hebrew class, and they commented that I had not posted in a while. Here is another Hebrew diagram from the Psalter. Nothing specific to point out, but these diagrams continue to show clear parallelism (e.g. v. 2 [1]) and chiasm (e.g. v. 10 [9]), among other things.

I had a chance to teach on Proverbs 2 this week. Here is my Hebrew diagram:
And here is the teaching outline I gave out:
Psalm 5 Leave a comment
Looking at my diagram for Psalm 5, the literary technique that stands out to me is chiasm. I’ve tried to make this evident by showing the parallel parts of the verse(s).
Also, since this is the first occurrence of the term chesed in the Psalter, I thought I would provide a short handout I use to talk about this important word. Nothing fancy, just a short analysis with the verses provided (in English).
1 Chronicles 16:8-36 and the Psalms 1 comment
I heard a great message on Psalm 96 yesterday and it got me thinking about a comparison I worked up on 1 Chronicles 16:8-36 and the related portions of text in the Psalter. Thought someone may find this helpful in studying the passage. I do some analysis in footnotes 4 & 5.
Psalm 4 4 comments
Besides being an example of how psalms are closely related in their context (see the connections to Psalm 3, of which I provided a comparison in the last post), I believe Psalm 4 demonstrates how repetition of key words help structure and understand the psalm more effectively. The diagram has these highlighted, and I’ll let you come to your own conclusions about their significance in showing the confidence that the psalmist has in Yahweh.
