Goulder's imagined liturgical use of the Psalms is quite unhelpful. The better exegetes see the Psalms as transcending Israel's worship both in terms of spirituality and universality. If we consider the so-called enthronement Pss, we will see this makes perfect sense. All the earth is summoned to sing to the Lord. The Psalter is genuinely the hymnbook of the New Testament church.
