The Psalms

The Psalms are widely regarded as among the greatest poetry ever written and, after the Gospels, they are probably the most commonly read part of the Bible. They are a regular part of the Church's worship and are a source of comfort and inspiration to Christians throughout the world. Here, John Eaton gives a fascinating introduction to the Psalms as a whole, examining their contextual background, their theology, and their importance down the ages. He also provides a new translation and a commentary on each of the 150 psalms. The discussion on each psalm ends with a prayer drawn from Eaton's understanding of the psalm. - Back cover.
