The Psalms: Violence, Revenge, and Transformation
Adobe Flash Player not installed or older than 9.0.115!
Adam discusses the Psalms. Why are we so uncomfortable with violent passages of the Psalms? They make us confront our own ugly desires for revenge. But the Psalms also allow us to see that the Judeo-Christian God stands with the victims of culture. As the Bible continues, we see that God stands with the victims, not in order to create more victims, but to heal broken relationships in the spirit of love and forgiveness.
