Synopsis: This evening (6/3/26), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we completed our learning of the Radak's commentary on our perek. After reviewing what we covered last time - the first six pesukim - we delved into the critical seventh pasuk which opened up his whole approach. We then finished learning [the critical parts of] his commentary, stepped back, and compared it with our own analysis, emphasizing the thematic and practical differences. I had to do everything in my power to resist bringing in ideas from the Rambam on Iyov, which would be appropriate but would necessarily fail to do them justice. All in all, I'm super happy with how our learning of this perek went. As I mention at the end of the shiur, this is perhaps the BEST introductory perek to Tehilim - the contents, the method, and the benefits. I can't wait until the next time I learn it!
