The Book of Psalms is one of the most popular and most read Bible books. For over 2,000 years, both Jews and Christians - including Catholics, Protestants and Orthodox Christians - have been reading it. It is worth emphasizing, however, that this is not an easy book. It was created in a culture foreign to us, in a foreign language (Hebrew - biblical) - it was written by people with a different mentality than ours. Therefor to understand it, you need the right knowledge. Unfortunately, this can only be obtained at theological faculties. It is known, however, that not all Bible readers feel called to study theology. Many exegetes understand this and write comments for them on Bible books, including the Book of Psalms. One of these exegetes is Fr. professor Tomasz M. Dąbek, the author of the book: To pray with Psalms, which was published in 2019 in Tyniec–Krakow. He divided his dissertation into several parts, which he titled: Introduction (pp. 7–8), Psalter as a prayer book of the People of God of the First Covenant (pp. 9–44), Psalms in the New Testament (pp. 45–58), Psalter as a prayer book to monks, consecrated persons and clergy (pp. 59–68), Psalter in the liturgy and in the personal prayer of a Christian (pp. 69–74), Thoughts about some Psalms (pp. 75–94), Summary (pp. 95–96) and Bibliographic proposals (pp. 97–98). This review presents his book.

Psalm 37 is one of the most typical wisdom texts in the Book of Psalms. In comparison to other psalms it contains a high number of information on the righteous and the wicked person. The paper aims to present and analyse in detail all contexts in which mentions of the righteous and the wicked appear in order to answer the question what function these information have. The paper is divided into five parts. In the first one is given a short introduction into psalm’s genre and its main topic. The second one reflects all mentions of the righteous and the wicked in Ps 37, such containing the key terms as qyDic' and [v'r' but also those which are thematically connected with them. In the third and fourth part of the paper the information about the righteous and the wicked are analysed in detail and the main contexts of their using are defined. The righteous as supported by God are mainly viewed as existential winners in contrast to the wicked presented as life losers. The final part of the article explains the role of the information on the righteous and the wicked in the psalm taking into account the actual situation of the psalm’s addressee.

The content of the article is a literary, historical and theological analysis of Psalm 122. After discussing the literary properties of the text and its place within the Psalms of Ascents (Pss 120–134), and its structure (vv. 1–2. 3–5. 6–9), the author gives three main interpretations of Psalm 122 that exist in accordance with the interpretations of the introductory formula (Songs of Degrees, Songs of Ascents, and Songs of Pilgrims). Psalm 122 is traditionally considered as authentic pilgrim’s song and it is also the view of the author. Subsequently the text applies literary and exegetical analysis to its three parts, which reveals both the historical and theological meaning of Psalm 122: joy of the pilgrimage (vv. 1–2), the description of Jerusalem (vv. 3–5), a prayer for peace and prosperity (vv. 6–9). The objective of the article was to use a correct method of biblical analysis, applying complementarily historical and theological exegesis in order to show the spiritual significance of Psalm 122 for Christian existence.

As the first step is given general characteristic of both texts. In the second and third is proposed detailed analyse of the psalmic understanding of God and his plan for Israelites. The end of the article consists of conclusion which takes into account the message of both texts read as continuum. In light of the psalms God is mainly seen as faithful to the covenant with Abraham (Ps 105) and full of graciousness towards his people (Ps 106). His plan for Israel is its existence in the Promised Land seen as a place free of foreign influence and managed by God’s laws.

David, the king of Israel, is an outstanding figure in Biblical history. Exceptionally talented, he left many wonderful works in various fields: religion, politics, and art. However, he was not free of errors, or even of committing crimes, yet he was capable of rising up from them through penitence and invoking the God of mercy. This is most evident after he had committed adultery with Bathsheba and led her husband Uriah the Hittite to death, as well as after the census. I discuss these cases and also deal with the penitential psalms, which reflect David’s attitude. In the second part, I analyze Mozart’s cantata Davide penitente (KV 469), in which he used the music from the Great Mass in C Minor, K. 427 c-moll to the Italian Psalm Paraphrases of the eighteenth century. I discuss the origins of the piece and of the libretto and comment on it at the musical and verbal level. The cantata is a harmonious synthesis in which the rich music complements the inspired words, reflecting its internal tension and emotions. Listening to this composition, we can more fully experience the contents contained within the Biblical text and delve into David’s dramatic world, which is always illuminated by God’s grace.

Dawid, król Izraela, jest wybitną postacią w historii biblijnej. Niezwykle utalentowany, zostawił wiele wspaniałych dzieł na różnych polach ‒ religijnym, politycznym, artystycznym. Nie ustrzegł się jednak poważnych błędów, a nawet zbrodni, ale potrafił się z nich podnieść przez pokutę, odwoływanie się do Bożego miłosierdzia. Widać to najlepiej po cudzołóstwie z Batszebą i doprowadzeniu jej męża Uriasza do śmierci oraz po spisie ludności. Autor omawia te przypadki i zatrzymuje się także nad psalmami pokutnymi, które są refleksem postawy Dawida. W drugiej części została zanalizowana kantata Davide penitente Mozarta (KV 469), w której kompozytor wykorzystał muzykę z Wielkiej Mszy c-moll (KV 427/417a) do włoskich parafraz psalmów z XVIII wieku. Autor omawia genezę utworu i libretto oraz komentuje go w warstwie muzycznej i słownej. Kantata stanowi harmonijną syntezę, w której bogata muzyka dopełnia natchnione słowa, oddaje ich wewnętrzne napięcia i emocje. Słuchając tego utworu, można głębiej przeżyć treści zawarte w tekście biblijnym i wniknąć w dramatyczny świat Dawida, rozświetlony zawsze Bożą łaską.
