    Hi Kate. Can you plz tell me why e.g. psalm 109,it is written "you" and "your" rather than thee and thine? Secondly, Cassiodorus says that the penitential psalms can be said to combat the 7 deadly sins. I find this a great comfort - and more; but is there ant fuller explanation as to why he says this? Thank you

    The particular version of the Douay-Rheims I've used in translations has varied over time depending availability. At one point New Advent was the most covenenient source, and it was using one of the twentieth century updated versions with you and your instead of three and thine.

    On Cassiodorus I don't have the relevant volume at hand at the moment but I suspect it was just the symbolism of seven.

    Thanks Kate. Our priest thought it a good practice re the penitential psalms. Thx to your link, i listened to Dom Folsom series on 'praying always' and would it be accurate to suggest a connection with Evagrius, Antirrhetikos, using scripture to combat the 7 (8 in the book) demons with what Cassiodorus proposes (expressing sorrow as well) but hoping to be strengthened against these in present and future. What's your thoughts on this?
    Also reminded of St Anthony's usage of psalm 67 "Let God arise...." which interestingly enough is the main prayer for the chaplet of The Holy Face.
    The psalms and scripture speak a lot of the face of God and been wanting to know if you have or can point me to a deeper exploration on this topic - of God turning (or not) His Face or showing us His Face. Thank you

      Yes I think there probably is a consistent stream of thought on the uses of Scripture to combat evil, whether from the devil or ourselves!

      On the Holy face, I'd suggest hunting through the blog run by the Prior of Silversteam Priority, Vultus Christi, which I recall has a number of posts on this theme, consistent with the blog title: https://vultuschristi.org/

    Thx Kate. Interesting ref. in Sunday's Gospel to the "seven other spirits" which according to a commentary, "may be understood as the seven deadly sins". God bless
