Description

Class #34 of a series on Sefer Tehillim. In this class, we examine chapter 23 of Tehillim, which is recited at funerals, at Seudah Shlishit, and, in many traditions, on Friday nights. We explain the content, structure, and metaphors involved in this Mizmor, then suggest two possible subjects of the trust portrayed in the Mizmor: Bnei Yisrael in general, and David HaMelech in particular. In addition, we consider the role that peace and tranquility plays in a religious life.
