The Psalms: Jesus’s Prayer Book (4 vols.)

A four-volume commentary for worship, devotion, and reflection on the Psalter.

The Old Testament Psalter testifies both to the universal human condition and the redemption wrought for believers in the person and work of Christ. In The Psalms, longtime pastor and seminary professor Doug Webster distills ancient and modern scholarship on Psalms into theological, canonical, apostolic, linguistic, and pastoral edification to students of the Psalter. By focusing on both the most consequential and the less developed aspects of psalmic studies, Webster shows how living a Christ-centered life goes hand in hand with digesting Psalms as a complete collection prefiguring Christ.

The volumes of The Psalms follow the internal divisions Psalms presents:

• Volume 1 (Book I of the Psalms)
• Volume 2 (Book II)
• Volume 3 (Book III-IV)
• Volume 4 (Book V)

Designed with preachers and teachers in mind, The Psalms strikes a middle ground between a technical commentary and a book of sermons. Webster offers pastoral insight in both interpretation and application of psalms for worship, unveiling purpose and significance for worship, devotion, and reflection.
