The Christian Use of the Psalter
Produced by Al Haines
"The Christian Use of the Psalter" by A. R. Whitham is a theological exploration written in the early 20th century. This text serves as a guide for understanding the significance and application of the Psalms within the context of Christian worship, particularly for everyday believers who may find the Psalms challenging to interpret. The author draws upon historical and doctrinal foundations to assert that the Psalms are integral to the Christian faith, revealing themes of praise, prayer, and human experience that resonate deeply with worshippers. At the start of the work, Whitham introduces the Psalter as a central element of Christian liturgy and personal devotion, highlighting its continuity with Jewish traditions. He outlines the historical context of the Psalms and emphasizes their relevance to Christian faith and worship, noting how they express humanity's response to God’s revelation. Whitham also acknowledges the difficulties associated with interpreting the Psalms due to their poetic nature and the cultural distance from contemporary readers. Through his analysis, he aims to bridge this gap and encourage a deeper appreciation for the Psalter as a source of spiritual nourishment and guidance within the Christian tradition.
