Abstract: In the Psalter, the Korahites, some Edomites are Universalists concerning Jerusalem. As doorkeepers they open the doors of Jerusalem to the nations. This point plays an important part in the redaction of the Psalter, with the role of the nations in Jerusalem. The reaction of Psalm 137 from Asaph, against Edom and Babylon; does not prevent the expansion to the kings of the nations in Ps 138.
