Tehilim 65: "To You, Silence is Praise" (Part 1)

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 57 minutesSynopsis: Tonight (1/29/24), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we began a new perek! I chose this one because of the famous opening line (which is central to the Rambam's writings about praising Hashem). As usual, we spent much of this first session reading and translating the perek, and BOY WAS IT A TEETHBREAKER! The words, grammar, and syntax in this perek are NOT simple! Still, we hobbled together a translation, then stuck with Robert Alter's translation for our analysis. We identified a viable pivot point and raised a bunch of questions. Next time (בג"ה), we'll try to develop a theory about the theme or the main idea, either on our own or with the help of meforshim.-----מקורות:תהלים פרק סה-----The Torah content for the rest of January is sponsored by Avital, “to continued growth, learning and clarity IY”H.
