Psalm 150:6
"Structure The Book of Psalms is arranged in five books:
Book 1 (Psalms 1-41);
Book 2 (Psalms 42-72);
Book 3 (Psalms 73-89);
Book 4 (Psalms 90-106);
Book 5 (Psalms 107-150).
--Each of the first four books concludes with a doxology,
--while Psalm 150 serves in its entirely as both a doxology for the fifth book and an appropriate conclusion of the entire Psalter
--The fivefold arrangement has long been recognized, but no explanation for its origin has proved satisfactory.
--The most common is the early Jewish tradition that judged the five books to be an imitation of the five books of Moses. None to date, however, has satisfactorily enumerated undisputed likenesses between the two sets of books, although some parallels have been found."
