א לַמְנַצֵּחַ, מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִד
For the Leader. A Psalm of David.
Psalm 31 Preface
The psalms are hymns or chants. In Hebrew they are the Tehilim - praises - offered to God.
Psalm comes from the Greek meaning songs to be sung to a harp.
For several years the 31st Psalm has had particular meaning for me.
Over the next twenty-three days I will examine each verse of this psalm.
The psalm is ascribed to King David. The leader in this case is the choir director.
Above is a miniature of King David from the Glasgow Hours.
