This week’s shiur:
Mizmor 119: Structure, Meaning and
Context
176 Verses – Identifying the Narrative of
the Longest Mizmor in Tehillim
?
This Mizmor praises the Torah in a
seemingly monotonous, repetitive 8-fold alphabetic order. Is this merely a long
collection of reiterative verse? Why is it placed between the Egyptian Hallel
and the collection of Shir Hamaalot?
?
The contextual interpretation (illustrated
throughout the course) will be applied to identify the narrative and messages
of this long mizmor (comprising?22 units of 8 verses). Additionally, the
perfect positioning of Mizmor 119 between the Egyptian Hallel (113-118) and the
Shirei Hamaalot (120-135) will be addressed, as will its correlation with the
beginning and end of the entire book of Tehillim.
