THE PSALMS

'The Psalter filled the life of the early Christianity. But more important than all of this is that Jesus died on the cross with words from the Psalms on his lips. Whenever the Psalter is abandoned, an incomparable treasure is lost to the Christian church. With its recovery will come unexpected power.'
Dietrich Bonhoeffer in Eric Metaxas, Bonhoeffer, p.368.
