From Silence to Song by Peter J Leithart

The debate in many Reformed circles over worship music is only a small part of the larger question of Reformed liturgics. And dancing. All sides admit that the New Testament offers relatively little instruction on liturgy, and so the debate over the regulative principle continues with apparently little hope for resolution. In this study, Peter Leithart's key insight reveals a prominent scriptural example of a liturgy that interprets God's commands for worship in ways far more biblically grounded than traditional regulativism allows. King David's tabernacle worship becomes a rich story, not only in respect to liturgical wisdom, but also to the significance of Zion in the fulfillments of the Christian era.

Peter J.Leithart (PhD, University of Cambridge) is president of Theopolis Institute in Birmingham, Alabama, and adjunct senior fellow of theology and literature at New Saint Andrews College. He is also a former pastor. He is the author of several publications, including the Brazos Theological Commentary on the Bible's Traces of the Trinity, 1 & 2 Kings, and Athanasius in the Foundations of Theological Exegesis and Christian Spirituality series. He's also a Touchstone contributing editor and a regular blogger at firstthings.com.
