Description
Audacity and prayer aren't words we associate
together, at least not with prayer as most of us
have known it.
These prayers are audacious, though. Those
praying them hold nothing back. Through
prayer, these writers lay before God the whole of
their experience. From despair's depths to
victory's jubilation, the psalms give voice to it all.
Written as corporate prayers and hymns, the
psalms were used originally in Israel's ancient
Temples. They have found a place in countless
congregations since .
"I welcome the translation of the Vulgate . . .
The Latin language and particularly the Vulgate
have had an enormous impact on the Christian
Church and our liturgical and theological
formation."
- Daniel Cardinal DiNardo,
Archbishop of Galveston-Houston
