This week’s Podcast Homily for Morning Prayer in our new Psalter series is focused on Psalm 118, a Psalm of David. Psalm 118, one of the most-qu0ted Psalms is a highly-Christological Psalm with many phrases understood as references to Jesus Christ. The illumination used. in the companion book, The Prayer Book Psalter: Picture Book Edition, is Psalm 118, below trimmed and formatted at 150 dpi for easier transmission on the Internet. The illustration is from the Stuttgart Psalter (Cod. Bibl. Fol.23-F0lio 131r, Wurttembergische Landesbibliothek, Stuttgart, Germany).

Work continues on Angels: the Book, with all images selected through the chapter on Revelation.

As always, thank you for your interest and support. Glory be to God for all things1 Amen!

The new Podcast Homily for Fourth Sunday after Easter in the new Psalter Series is now online, linked from the Welcome and Podcast Homilies-Morning Prayer pages. The focus is on Psalm 116, a Psalm of David. For this episode the illustration is detail Folio 130r from the Stuttgart Psalter, produced at the Abbey of Saint-Germain-des-Pres, Paris, circa 820. The artist offers a literal intepretation of Psalm 116:2 (Because he hath inclined his ear unto me…).

Work continues on the newest book project: Angels: the Book. At this time, with most of the text completed up to the “Angels in Revelation” chapter, there are 226 pages with over 120 illustrations. I’m working on the final selection of images for Revelation, choosing among five sources from the 8th to the 14th C.

I remain thankful for our followers of AIC videos, podcasts and books and remind viewers that we offer ways to WATCH-READ-LISTEN to teaching materials for lay audiences in whatever format they prefer.

Glory be to God for all things! Amen!
