Psalma 1 in 2 kot uvod v psalter

: The paper analyzes Psalms 1 and 2 in the light of canonical exegesis. Since the antique, we can find testimonies proving that the two psalms are connected in such a manner that some considered them as a single psalm. Ca-nonical exegesis returns to these testimonies and searches for connections between the two psalms. The article at first presents each psalm separately with the accompanying textual criticism and interpretation of the text, and af - terwards, after a brief presentation of the methodology of canonical exegesis, suggests connecting words and themes. The strategic position of Ps 1 and 2 at the beginning of the book of Psalms indicates that the links spread throughout the entire psalter, both in relation to individual (sub)books and in relation to the conclusion in Ps 146‒150.
