Psalmâs role in the Bible. Psalms is the second book of poetry in the Bible. While the poetic books of Job, Ecclesiastes, and Song of Solomon read as whole pieces, Psalms is a collection of 150 small units in one bookâsomewhat like todayâs hymnals.
The psalm (118 in the Septuagint) figures prominently in the worship of the Orthodox Church. There is a tradition that King David used this psalm to teach his young son Solomon the alphabetâbut not just the alphabet for writing letters: the alphabet of the spiritual life.
