That's the edition my church uses. It was the 1973 RPCNA Psalter that came up with the Psalm # letter as in 98A, 145C etc.<BR/><BR/>Plus the 1973 Psalter does a better job in representing the name of God then previous, insofar as when the word LORD is substituted for God's name, it is rendered in all CAPS like the KJV and other do. That was not the case in the 1950 Psalter or previous. FWIW though I think it's better to render Jehovah than even LORD. Why we want to continue the error of the Jews is beyond me.<BR/><BR/>It has always seemed to me that the RPCNA Psalters have been far superior to the UPCNA Psalters. But then the UPCNA was apostate by 1958 when it joined the PCUSA.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14603359.post-43602039375017310122008-09-26T08:09:00.000-07:002008-09-26T08:09:00.000-07:00That is one of the annoying things about older Psa...That is one of the annoying things about older Psalters. I think was the 1950 edition of the RP Psalter that first solved the problem by giving the Psalm number and a letter to show the stanzas. <BR/><BR/>The UP Psalter is quite annoying with this because it has the Psalm number- 122, the selection number- 350, and a page number!! <BR/><BR/>It is confusing for people who are just starting to use the book- but becomes second nature after a bit.NPEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05876228480961585856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14603359.post-27420693844856293942008-09-26T08:08:00.000-07:002008-09-26T08:08:00.000-07:00Thanks Nathan.Thanks Nathan.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14603359.post-40717354050234632582008-09-26T07:18:00.000-07:002008-09-26T07:18:00.000-07:00There is 350 Psalms? ;)There is 350 Psalms?<BR/><BR/><BR/> ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14603359.post-38690892822153204212008-09-25T19:00:00.000-07:002008-09-25T19:00:00.000-07:00It is the United Presbyterian Psalter's rendition ...It is the United Presbyterian Psalter's rendition of Psalm 122.An Eshelmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12635336132505979880noreply@blogger.com
