  • Basic
  • Gert Kwakkel

The author helps to show why the use of the personal pronoun in the psalms is not a sign of individualism, for the psalmists are not speaking exclusively for themselves. Therefore, also these psalms may be used in corporate worship.

We are not cleansed by Christ so that we can immerse ourselves continually in fresh dirt, but in order that our purity may serve the glory of God. John Calvin
