Doubts about the contribution of cult-prophetic speech to psalmody
remain in debate. Psalms containing first-person divine speech
exhibit numerous features and suggest life settings that conform to
actual prophetic speech. Alternative explanations lack comparable
examples external to psalms. On the other hand, Assyrian cultic
prophecies parallel the characteristics of prophetic speech found
in psalms. The Assyrian sources support possible composition and
performance scenarios that overcome objections raised against the
compatibility of genuine prophecy with psalmody. A model of cultic
prophecy remains the best explanation for the origin of psalms
containing first-person divine speech.
