Most Jews are familiar with the thirty or so psalms included in the prayerbook. But the siddur actually leaves out the best ones! In this course, you'll get an introduction to the Book of Psalms, an understanding of how some of these texts are put together, and a close look at a few amazing psalms. The psalms provide surprising glimpses into how individuals in biblical times saw their relationship with God and exercised their agency to persuade God. And you will finally find out why the rabbis were so impressed with Ashrei that they included it in every religious service.

You are welcome to bring your own copy of the psalms so that we can compare translations and commentaries.
