    I don't understand the last line here. You say #10 is Psalm 68, consisting of 36 vv and 708 words in the Authorized Version (AV, I assume). Then you say below it that the same Psalm has 35 verses and 680 words in the same version (AV) Is that a typo? I believe #10 should be Psalm 69, n'est-ce pas?

    Thanks for spotting that. I've put it right now (I think).

    Thanks for this useful list. I'm writing a series of short meditations on Psalm 78, suspected it might be the second-longest, and had it confirmed by your entry.

    Is number 8 missing in this list, or is the just numbering faulty?

    Give thanks for this list. I needed it, in the name of Jesus. Just a bit overwhelmed I believe. Thank you.
