THE PSALMS
I. _The Collection and Divisions:_
In all probability the book of one hundred and fifty psalms, as it now stands, was compiled by Ezra about 450 B.C.
They are divided into five books, each closing with a benediction, evidently added to mark the end of the book. Note the number of psalms in Books 1 and 2.
II. _The Purposes:_
1. They were originally used as songs in the Jewish Temple Worship.
2. For centuries after Christ they formed the only Christian Hymnal.
3. They have comforted and supported the troubled hearts of all believers in all ages.
III. _General Characteristics:_
1. They are _personal_.--Number the first personal p.r.o.nouns in Psalm 23.
Note the frequent occurrence in others.
2. They are the expression of _heart_ experiences.--Note the frequent use of the words heart and soul. These Hebrew poems are largely the diaries of the inner life.
3. They express the _intimate relation_ between G.o.d and man.--Note in Psalms 23, 103, 139 how many the phrases which contain p.r.o.nouns and words referring to both G.o.d and man.
