Tehillim Unveiled

By: Ari Levisohn and Rav Jeremy Tibbetts
  • Summary

  • Over the past year, we've been saying a lot of Tehillim (Psalms), and it got me thinking more deeply about some of the words that are so familiar to us. As I delved into them—combining modern literary analysis with a spiritual, meditative approach—I began to uncover layers of meaning that truly amazed me. It’s been a transformative journey, and I’ve developed a profound love for the book, that I couldn't help but try to share. Join me as we unpack a new psalm each month, unveiling new meaning to the words we know so well.

  • Tehillim 27: "L'David Hashem Uri" (Part 1)
    Sep 15 2024

    Tehillim 27 is the anthem of the season. Beginning on the first of Elul (September 4, 2024), it is traditionally recited twice daily through the end of Sukkot, totalling just over 100 recitations over nearly two months. This psalm contains some truly beautiful verses and has likely inspired more songs than any other chapter in Tanach. But how well do we really understand it as a cohesive whole? What is the progression from verse 1 to verse 14? What is the psalm's overall message? And how do we make sense of the more unusual lines, such as when David mentions his parents abandoning him?

    In exploring these questions, we’ll see that this mizmor is far more than just a collection of memorable one-liners. Our analysis, with God’s help, will uncover a profoundly deep and heart-wrenching story.
