The past two times I have read the book I have tried to read the book through in the order that it was written and see how the different chapters work. As I read, I try to note common themes and language. The book is full of both of these.
I must admit my bias. When I read the book now-a-days I am assuming that there is purpose in the structure of this book (this is important because some think the book does not have a purpose as a whole). I also must admit that I am really looking for Jesus in every chapter (not just David). So with that I will tell you something I have noticed that may help you or you may just think "Tanner, you are a little slow." No matter what your response here it is:
Read carefully the pronouns in the book. The language of the Psalter will move quickly from hims to thems and then back from thems to hims. The singular to plural or the plural to singular switches in the language happen fast and sometimes you may not notice it, but I do think that it is important and I will try to show you why in future posts.
With that captain obvious post I am out.
Good night and God bless.
