Psalms, Layer by Layer is a new initiative for creating translation helps for Old Testament poetry supporting the production of Bible translations with high communicative effect and literary quality.

Our aim is to provide visualisations and resources that make accessible the rhetorical, high-level discourse structure of each Hebrew poem while also providing the full grammatical, syntactic and semantic foundations on which such an analysis must depend.

As we work to establish the processes we'll use for this project, we're currently focusing our efforts on Psalm 1.
