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.
