Psalm 22

Jon Ericson reads a Psalm each day (or so).

An important source for me is Robert Alter's "The Book of Psalms: A Translation with Commentary" which I am currently reading. I won't be specifically focusing on religion, but it might sneak in from time to time because of the topic. Feel free to skip my babbling if you just want to hear some great poetry competently recited.
