Course on the Psalms by Br. Francis Maluf, M.I.C.M.

After having spent the better portion of his lifetime meditating upon Holy Scripture, most especially the Psalms, Brother Francis is well equipped to utilize the Fathers and the Doctors, as well as his own experiences, to give us some solid direction as to how to read and understand the book with the mind of the Church. The Psalms have always been the primary source for the prayers and liturgy of the Church, being not only the most important of the wisdom books, but also the preeminent book of prophecy of the Old Testament.

The Psalms are prayed daily all around the world in monasteries, convents, and rectories as a part of the Divine Office. It is difficult to find a saint who has not spent lots of time meditating on the Psalms. The Book of Psalms is quoted more than any other Old Testament book by Our Lord and the Apostles in the New Testament.

Brother began his course on the Psalms in May of 1998. These tapes were not professionally recorded and the quality of some of the recordings is not always that good. Brother's words, however, are always intelligible. We are listing this item at a lower price to reflect the quality.

Out of the 150 Psalms, only 11 are not covered in this course due to technical difficulties: Psalms 61,62,73,74,99-104,143,144
