GTM - A Song Book for the Ages - By Michael Heiss - May 19, 2023

Tonight we are indeed going to be looking into the book of Psalms.

It’s a remarkable book with 150 chapters.

There’s no way under the sun that we will go over 150 chapters in about an hour. Hopefully, I can give an overview of the book and dive into three or four to give us a good flavor.

Psa. 1, to me, is one of the more underrated Psalm of them all, because of what it packs into just six verses. Then Psa. 150, the last Psalm, is also a Psalm with six verses. They’re like bookends, and one truly does complete the other.

Before we actually get underway, if you can, I strongly urge you to read Appendix B—The Structure of the Book of Psalms in The Holy Bible in Its Original Order, A Faithful Version! It is in large part came from the work of Dr. Ernest Martin who was a professor at Ambassador College in the 1960s and 70s; a brilliant individual! I had a chance to meet with him at a time or two. Fred knew him better, more well acquainted with him than I was.

In a lot of the books that Dr. Martin wrote—and I have a copy here: Restoring the Original Bible. It is an overview of the Bible, the canonization and he has a section on the Psalms. Before he died, he gave Fred permission to reprint any portion of it that Fred desired for The Faithful Version. So, we have three pages there and you can read them in Appendix B; it’s a very good overview of that book.

The division of Psalm is in five books; we all know that, but just in case you don’t have them written down, let me give you those five divisions:


· Book #1—Psalm 1-41

· Book #2—Psalm 42-72

· Book #3—Psalm 73-89

· Book #4—Psalm 90-106

· Book #5—Psalm 107-150


These books stretch over a period of time of about 900-1000 years.
