Liturgical Maximalism and Biblical Psalm Tune

 I practice 'liturgical maximalism' as liturgy recaps the feasts of Israel. As one goes through each step, one can do what JBJ called -- well, I don't remember it now but it means running your mind through the whole Bible. A good example is near the end of Samuel, when David pines for water from a well in Jerusalem. His men daringly get him some, but he pours it out saying, in effect, this is their blood of daring. Thus, wine in The Lord's Supper. Etc.

I've figured out from Cascione's 'Repetition in the Bible,' which credits JBJ, what a Biblical Psalm tune could be. Just one. 117 with 150:6. 7 Praised, 6 praisers, 5 commands to praise! In (Christian)sociology of 3 institutions and 4 fronts, for the next epoch, the first 3 are 1,4,9 laid out on a 12 of octave, so each phrase of the respective above is sung in that note. If JBJ's Psalms are ever liberated from his computer one could try some more
