The relation between Psalm 1 (and 2) and the other psalms regarding enemies
In conjunction with a previous article “Integrality of the psalms according to the relation between Psalm 1 (and 2) and the rest of the psalms”, this article especially examines the Tora of the Lord. The Tora is not merely the object of human reflection, but especially the living subject by which life and victory have the last word. One does not only have to do with a momentary life experience, but with a path of life. The relation between Psalm 1 (and 2) and the other psalms regarding enemies/enmity, lies in the summons of Psalm 1 (and 2) to trust in the Tora as life creating Law/Word on the true path of life.
