Studies on Book One of the Psalms
Overview
Perhaps no portion of Scripture has meant more to the people of God nor spoken more to the experience of following God than the book of Psalms. This book is a vehicle of prayer and praise. The Psalms reveal the remarkable design of God, the searing honesty of the Psalmists, and the full-orbed spectrum of emotion. Ironside’s commentary works through Psalms 1–41, revealing the full range of the Psalmists words to God and God’s response.

H. A. Ironside (1876–1951) is one of the twentieth century’s greatest preachers. He has received honorary degrees from Wheaton College and Bob Jones University and was frequently invited to lecture at Dallas Theological Seminary.
After a serving as a Salvation Army officer for a brief period, Ironside joined the Plymouth Brethren and started what would become a highly successful itinerant ministry of preaching and teaching. He served as pastor at Moody Memorial Church from 1930 to 1948, and preached more than 7,000 sermons during his lifetime.

He was a major figure in the popularizing of dispensationalism among American evangelicals and for the most part followed the views of the Scofield Reference Bible.
