Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Marko Marttila's study is a new contribution to the old question, how the 'I' of the Psalms should be understood. It seems that people who were responsible for editing the Hebrew Psalter more than two thousand years ago identified the suffering anonymous 'I' with the suffering people of Israel. Thus the editors in their own time attempted to make earlier texts more actual."--BOOK JACKET.
