Dawidha, the CoE Psalter

[Paul Younan]

Shlama Shamasha,

I would like to know how the CoE Psalter is arranged

Shlama Khati,

See the following link for an exhaustive treatment of the CoE Psalter (Dawidha):

In particular, reference the indexes beginning on page 259 of Maclean's book.

Hulali means "divisions", there are 21 of them in the CoE Psalter....equivalent in function to the 20 Greek Kathisma.

The Peshitta OT does have four Psalms not found in the Masoretic tradition of the Hebrews (or any other extant tradition for that matter)...however I know of at least one of them that was found, in the original Hebrew, in the Dead Sea Scrolls.
