Résumé: | Two pieces of rhetorical theory support reading Pss 4 and 62 as arguments to strayers to return to faithfulness.

Second, with positive identification, speakers connect to hearers with shared experiences and values; with negative identification, speakers repel hearers away from rivals by painting them as radical extremists. Modern rhetorical theory proves useful for addressing contested elements of the psalms. |
