| Some Benefits of Familiarity with the Psalms
An item regarding the Psalms in ancient church history: Quote:
“The women, the children, and the humblest mechanics, could repeat all the Psalms of David; they chanted them at home and abroad: they made them the exercises of their piety and the refreshment of their minds. Thus they had answers ready to oppose temptation, and were always prepared to pray to God, and to praise him, in any circumstance, in a form of his own inditing.”
-- Apostolic Constitutions
