Abstract:
Addressing the problem of the prospering of the wicked, Psalm 37 uses a poetic device to enact their destruction symbolically and concretely for the reader/listener in visible and audible correspondence and semantic affinity. A pivotal alliterative word series, chiastic in sound and sense, serves as an organizing pattern to subsume a system of literary devices and imagery.
