Document Details : Title: Christologie und die Lectio Continua des Psalters Author(s): BÖHLER, Dieter Journal: Biblica Volume: 102 Issue: 4 Date: 2021 Pages: 515-536 DOI: 10.2143/BIB.102.4.3290255 Abstract : The article shows that the Psalter as a book, that is, the Psalms in their sequence, tell a story that runs parallel to the Books of Samuel, to which the titles of several Psalms refer. The portrait of David thus sketched in the Psalter – as the Anointed who suffers and is persecuted but rescued by God – is a primary source for the Christology of the evangelists. The rescue of the Messiah from persecution and suffering leads the nations to convert to the God of Israel. This is exemplified in the sequence of Psalms 36-40. |
