Psalm 19  Hampton Keathley IV

Tree of Knowledge and the Law of Yahweh (Psalm 19), The  David JA Clines examines the  terminology used to describe the law of Yahweh in the second half of Psalm 19 and believes that it is reminiscent of the description of the tree of knowledge of good and evil (Gen. 2.9, 17; 3.5-7) and suggests that the author of Ps. 19.7-14 intended by his allusions to Gen. 2­3 to assert the superiority of the law to the tree of knowledge as a means of obtaining wisdom.

Psalm 22 (LXX 21) and the Crucifixion of Jesus Mark George Vitalis Hoffman considers that as Jesus  reciteed the opening words of Psalm 22 before he died, the potential ways of understanding Psalm 22 were explored by early Christians in order to claim that this psalm — which rightly could be and was read as being a psalm about a Davidic heir and a son of God — was about the Son of God, the Davidic heir acknowledged to be the Messiah.
 

World Established on Water (Psalm 24), A: Reader Response, Deconstruction and Bespoke Interpretation  David JA Clines  disagrees with the author's view of the earth's construction and holds that this cosmological misapprehension is only the outcropping of a larger seismic fault that runs hidden beneath the whole surface of the psalm.

A Challenge for Fathers Psalm 78: 1-8  J. Hampton Keathley III

The Book of Psalms, Where Men Are Men ...: On the Gender of Hebrew Piety    David JA Clines looks at masculinity in Psalms and initially thought that, when it came to piety and prayer and the divine, the maleness might not be so intrusive and the spirit they breathe might be human and humane rather than indefeasibly masculine. Some of the identifiable maleness of the piety in the Hebrew psalms he recognised in the rhetoric of war, the ideology of honour and shame, the construction of 'enemies', the role of women, the concept of solitariness, the importance of strength and height in its metaphorical system, and the practice of binary thinking.
