Bible Commentary: (on chapters 146-150 in part) "'Hallelujah' or 'praise the Lord' show us where, why, and how to praise God What does praise do?

* "Praise takes our minds off our problems and shortcomings, and focuses them on God;

* "Praise takes us from individual meditation to corporate worship;

* "Praises causes us to consider and appreciate God's character;

* "Praise takes our perspective from the earthly to the heavenly."
