During the Middle Ages the psalm verses were dropped from the offertory and communion, which now consists only of an antiphon.

Antiphonal singing was an element of Jewish liturgy believed to have entered the monasteries   
of Syria and Palestine in the 4th century from the Jewish communities such as the one in Antioch.
