The many and varied manifestations of violence that permeate the Book of Psalms can be off-putting for modern audiences. Although the violence in the poems might leave readers cold, it remains a hot topic that requires careful consideration. The contributions of this volume deal with the theme of violence and the Psalms from different methodological perspectives. They focus on various aspects and manifestations of the complex phenomenon of violence (physical, verbal, emotional, psychological, structural, etc.), their expressions in single or groups of psalms and the Psalter as a whole and employ a variety of approaches to interpret the biblical texts.

Lodewyk Sutton, Ph.D. (2015, University of Pretoria), is an associate professor in Old Testament at the Faculty of Theology and Religion, University of the Free State, South Africa. He has published multiple chapters and articles on the Book of Psalms from the perspectives of ancient warfare, Old Testament anthropology and literary spatial theories.

Gideon R. Kotzé, D.Th. (2011, Stellenbosch University), is a research professor in the focus area Ancient Texts at the Faculty of Theology, North-West University, South Africa. His most recent monograph is Images and Ideas of Debated Readings in the Book of Lamentations (Mohr Siebeck, 2020).
