New translation post at the blog!
We kick off Hilary’s treatise on Psalm 1 with the question, Who is the man of “blessed is the man”? Who can he *not* be? And why is Augustine so wrong about it?

Today I begin an occasional series between Psalm treatises on which I explore the historical and doctrinal situations of Hilary’s polemical targets.
