Songs of a Suffering King: The Grand Christ Hymn of Psalms 1–8
Overview
Our Lord has given Psalms, the songbook of the Bible, for the benefit of the church. But for many people, Psalms’ contents are mysterious because they no longer have a place of prominence in the church’s worship. Author J. V. Fesko hopes to awaken the church to the majesty, beauty, and splendor of Psalms through a devotional exploration of Psalms 1–8, a “grand Christ hymn,” in which David, as the suffering king, prefigures the king of kings, Jesus Christ. To encourage readers to come to a greater appreciation for Psalms, the author includes with each chapter questions for further reflection and study and a metrical version of each psalm. He also recommends internet resources that provide digital files of the tunes.
