About this listen
This week the ladies of the Mosaic Ark welcomed medieval scholar Robert Keim, who discussed his translation of the psalms which uses some of the lost vocabulary of medieval England. Professor Keim is in love with the Lord; he is also in love with the English language. He believes that the power of the psalms is in their poetry, and that this poetry helps Christians to understand who their Lord is and their proper relationship with him. But, as he and the ladies discussed, the psalms also help us to see that we are never alone in our moments of weakness; we share the same worries and fears as its author and the same hope in our Lord. This has been a very dark and unsettling week. We pray for the repose of the soul of Charlie Kirk, and for the safety and consolation of his widow and children, for “God is our refuge and our strength, our help when afflictions are heavy upon us” (Psalm 45, Robert’s translation). —Streamed September 12, 2025
