The Psalms Of Solomon

By Herbert Edward Ryle and Rutherford H. Platt

Book Overview

The Psalms of Solomon is a book written by Rutherford H. Platt that contains a collection of 18 psalms that were likely written between the first century BCE and the first century CE. These psalms are not included in the Hebrew Bible or the Christian Old Testament, but they are considered to be important for understanding the religious and political context of the Jewish people during the Second Temple period.The psalms in this book are written in a poetic style and cover a range of topics, including praise and worship of God, lamentations over the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem, and calls for justice and righteousness. They also contain references to messianic figures and the hope for a future restoration of Israel.Platt's translation of the Psalms of Solomon includes extensive notes and commentary to provide historical and cultural context for the psalms. This book is an important resource for scholars and students of Jewish and Christian history and theology, as well as anyone interested in exploring the rich literary and spiritual traditions of ancient Judaism.THIS 22 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Forgotten Books of Eden, by Rutherford H.
