Book excerpt: A whimsical, earnest tribute to the hidden spiritual wisdom of our loyal canine companions. Dog Psalms is a heartwarming book that celebrates the spiritual gifts of our canine companions.

Throughout the book, readers will be taken on a journey that explores the unique personalities, behaviors, and quirks of dogs, while relating the lives of dogs to the deep parts of the human experience. Each psalm speaks to some aspect of a dog's nature, written in the voice of the dog, and is followed by a prayer in which the human spirit speaks to God from its dog-like nature. By turns humorous, serious, and always deeply insightful, Dog Psalms is perfect for the imaginative spiritual adventurer and for the dog lover attuned to the wisdom of these loyal mystics in our midst.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two amazing things are true about dogs. Number one, the love that your dog has for you is as close as you will come on earth to the love that Jesus Christ has for you: unconditional. Number two, the relationship between a dog and his master is strikingly similar to the relationship between a believer in Jesus Christ and God. These two realizations got the wheels turning and were responsible for Psalms and Proverbs for Dogs. The parallels will make you laugh while also making you contemplate your relationship with your dog and God. Find joy, inspiration, and fruitful growth in both relationships through these verses.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arthur Walker-Jones presents an Earth-focused reading of the second book of Psalms, focusing upon the many nonhuman animals that appear repeatedly within the text. In the first commentary to explore the implications of the natural and cultural history of animals for the interpretation of Psalms, Walker-Jones moves beyond the standard treatment of animals as mere metaphors for human concerns, or background to human stories. Instead, Walker-Jones draws upon the interdisciplinary field of animal studies, incorporating this into ecocritical analysis and arguing for the similarity between the two approaches, including recognizing that the oppression and liberation of humans is interrelated with the oppression and liberation of Earth and all its creatures. Walker-Jones looks at foxes, sheep, goats, cattle, doves, snakes, lions, snails, dogs, and deer, which all appear in Psalms 42–72, taking into account that many of these animals co-evolved with humans and created the particular ecological niche of the highlands east of the Mediterranean. Perceiving Earth in various ways-as refuge, as enemy, as Rock, and as fertile and joyous-this volume brings an entirely new ecological perspective to the Psalms.

Download or read book Homilies on the Psalms written by Origen and published by Catholic University of America Press. This book was released on 2020-12-18 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2012 Dr. Marina Marin Pradel, an archivist at the Bayerische Stattsbibliotek in Munich, discovered that a thick 12th-century Byzantine manuscript, Codex Monacensis Graecus 314, contained twenty-nine of Origen’s Homilies on the Psalms, hitherto considered lost. Lorenzo Perrone of the University of Bologna, an internationally respected scholar of Origen, vouched for the identification and immediately began work on the scholarly edition that appeared in 2015 as the thirteenth volume of Origen’s works in the distinguished Griechische Christlichen Schrifsteller series. In an introductory essay Perrone provided proof that the homilies are genuine and demonstrated that they are, astonishingly, his last known work. Live transcripts, these collection homilies constitute our largest collection of actual Christian preaching from the pre-Constantinian period. In these homilies, the final expression of his mature thought, Origen displays, more fully than elsewhere, his understanding of the church and of deification as the goal of Christian life. They also give precious insights into his understanding of the incarnation and of human nature. They are the earliest example of early Christian interpretation of the Psalms, works at the heart of Christian spirituality. Historians of biblical interpretation will find in them the largest body of Old Testament interpretation surviving in his own words, not filtered through ancient translations into Latin that often failed to convey his intense philological acumen. Among other things, they give us new insights into the life of a third-century Greco-Roman metropolis, into Christian/Jewish relations, and into Christian worship. This translation, using the GCS as its basis, seeks to convey, as faithfully as possible, Origen’s own categories of thought. An introduction and notes relate the homilies to the theology and principles of interpretation in Origen’s larger work and to that work’s intellectual context and legacy.
