Mobile Ed: OT344 Book Study: Psalms
Digital Verbum Edition
Overview
Join professor and author Dr. Jim Hamilton as he unpacks the biblical and theological themes found in the Psalms. Though commonly read in isolation, Dr. Hamilton argues that the Psalms are best read as a collage that tells a story of God’s faithfulness to his people through his king. After describing his biblical theological hermeneutic for interpreting the Psalms, he provides a breakdown of the five books in the Psalms highlighting and providing commentary on individual or groupings of psalms. This course will give you a fresh appreciation of the Psalms as you learn where they belong in the redemptive story, how they relate to God’s people, and how they find their fulfillment in Jesus.

Can we get a time frame for this release? I asked a couple of Reps. at Logos and they didn’t know, so I asked Professor Hamilton and he didn’t know either. I really do want to purchase this after starting his commentary on the Psalms.Christ Follower
