I think that is Willie Philips’s design with these Psalms: to give us a taste and hook us on the Psalms. No dodging nasty questions, nothing superficial here; just solid, ‘thought–full,’ nourishing exposition in perfectly lucid prose. (And don’t you dare pass up his treatment of Psalm 88).

Read moreFollowing a splendid introduction to the Psalter, this marvellous little book exemplifies the very qualities it identifies in the Psalms. As it takes us through Psalms of protest, penitence, pain, promise pilgrimage and – finally – praise, I found ‘my imagination, stirred my emotions excited and my intellect fed’. It is a wonderful blend of raw human experience, intelligent contemporary insight, and good, old–fashioned heart–warming piety. What a lovely book to own, read and give away liberally.
