Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, compiled and published by the General Association of the State of Connecticut in 1793, is a unique collection of Psalms, with certain stanzas altered to reflect the views of the Christian church rather than any specific country or people. The alterations were overseen by Rev. Messrs. Timothy Pitkin, John Smalley, and Theodore Hinsdale, with additional amendments and the addition of a collection of Hymns, approved by appointed committees from particular Associations. The book provides a comprehensive account of the Psalter from the viewpoint of the Christian church, offering a deeper understanding of the relevance of these ancient texts to Christian worship and private devotion. It incorporates the insights and devotional contributions of the author, whose vast knowledge of scriptural passages and interpretations, combined with their elegant and uplifting poetic style, enhance the devotional experience. The significance of this book lies in its contribution to the standardization of psalmody within religious assemblies and its lasting influence on the Christian understanding of the Psalms.
