Goldsworthy: NT effects on Psalms

Just started slowly wandering through Graeme Goldsworthy's Prayer and the Knowledge of God. Early on he makes an interesting point (I don't yet know how he is going to develop it), that we apply the coming of Jesus to a lot of OT issues, but not prayer...

[this issue occurs when] reading a passage from the OT and thinking about it without consciously relating it to the fulfilment of the OT in Christ. Some OT texts, such as those that deal with certain details of Israel's ceremonial law, cry out for us to make some adjustment for the fact that Jesus has come...But other faith matters in the OT, such as the prayers in the Psalms, are quite easily read as they stand and we simply assume the connection with ourselves.

Goldsworthy, p15.
