Now Harold Kushner discovers what it has to teach us about living our daytoday lives. Each chapter discusses one line of the psalm in the context of both the time when it was written and the present day, and illuminates the life lessons contained within it. For example, Kushner shows us that the phrase ?y cup runneth over?is a declaration of our gratitude for what life has given us and a rejection of the envy we may feel for what others have. And he draws on the ideas and thoughts of various spiritual figuresfrom G. K. Chesterton to Martin Buber to Paul Tillichto further expand our understanding of this great psalm and help us benefit from its everyday spiritual wisdom.
