Participant Analysis Summary

The Legend lists the participants in this psalm, with their representative color (used throughout Layer by Layer materials). The "mini-story" is a sentence that summarizes the psalm's content with a focus on who does what to whom. The triangle shows a visual representation of this information--who does what to whom, indicated by colors and arrows. For example, in this psalm, the enemies oppose YHWH, and YHWH founds a fortress to stop the enemies. For more details on the participants, including a clause-by-clause breakdown, see the Participant Analysis layer below.
