Even by the high standards of the Psalms, the poems contained in Books 3 and 4 (Psalms 73–106) are extraordinary in their insight and inspiration. They include memorable works by Asaph, the sons of Korah, and Moses and have laid the groundwork for many beloved hymns, including “Joy to the World!” and “Praise, My Soul, the King of Heaven.” In this thoughtful, devotional commentary, pastor-theologian Richard D. Phillips shows how these psalms’ particular honesty about the trials in our human experience magnify the justice and grace of our sovereign God. He alone offers the remedy to life’s fiercest struggles.
In our spiritual walk of faith, the psalmists take believers by the hand and guide us in our communion with God, pointing always to Christ.
