The Classes

Mizmorim 113-118 (The Egyptian Hallel)

Why is this entire group of 6  Mizmorim referred to as the Egyptian Hallel even though the Exodus is only mentioned in Mizmor 114? What is the role of Mizmor 114 in the story of Mizmorim 113-118 which focus on Hallel (praise) and Hodaah (thanks)?

Mizmor 119: Structure, Meaning and Context

This long Mizmor praises the Torah in an 8-fold alphabetic order which seems to be very repetitive and monotonous. Is there a structure and a message or is this just a long collection of verses with the same ideas? And why is it placed between the Egyptian Hallel and the Shirei Hamaalot collection?

Mizmorim 113-118 (Egyptian Hallel) and 135-136 (Great Hallel): A Comparison
