The volume contains various articles by Hermann Spieckermann covering wisdom literature, the Psalms and Old Testament theology. Some of the articles have not yet been published, most of them were published in the previous decade and have been thoroughly revised for this new edition. The revision was necessary since the articles are to serve a new purpose in the present setting. They strive to elucidate the connection between wisdom, prayer and Old Testament theology and to explore the world of God-related knowledge and prayer in order to identify the findings of sapiential literature and psalms for Old Testament theology. The art of living and praise of God are identified as the two focal points which like an ellipse encompass and pervade the entire Old Testament theology.
