Proverbs - Psalms: Singing the Sounds of Real Life

Times change and life’s issues take new forms. Solomon never sat in a traffic jam on the freeway and we never fret over an attack by the Philistines, but human emotions remain the same. In this course students will study the distilled language of Israel’s poets as they sang the songs of their lives.
