Profetas y salmistas. El eco de los salmos.

Abstract

The importance of the Psalms in the prayer of the Church, and increasingly also in the personal prayer of each of the faithful, makes the Psalter powerfully attractive and stands out among almost all the other biblical books that form its immediate context. This is a more complete and organic exposition, respecting however the special affinity that it has with the prophetic activity and message. This second volume, The Echo of the Psalms, responds to The Voice of the Prophets (first volume). With the new chapters with which each one of the two parts of the work now ends, we want to return to the prophets as to the psalms in a broader perspective, which will make their voices continue to accompany the reader even when he or she is not familiar with the analyses that had to be made in order to become familiar with each inspired book. This has allowed to review the work and to clearly establish, from observations scattered in different pages, certain convergent lines that bring the results of exegesis closer to the acquisitions of theology, and the academic requirements to the daily life of believers. The study on the Psalms is published in this new edition in a separate volume, to facilitate its more immediate use by people, biblical groups and theological teaching centers that are particularly interested in these ancient and so current songs.
