🔊 LISTEN TO CHAPTER

The Book of Psalms is canonical in Judaism (Ketuvim) and Christianity (Old Testament), with its authority confirmed by ancient manuscripts (Qumran), the New Testament, and councils (Hippo, Carthage). The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church, however, has a broader canon that includes Psalm 151 as an integral part of the Psalter, accepted as Holy Scripture also by Orthodox, Syriac, and Armenian traditions, demonstrating the historical diversity of biblical canons.
