Description
he book of Psalms is so magnificent that it is difficult to know where to begin in describing its glory. Psalms is a peerless book. There is nothing like the Psalms in all of human literature. The Psalms cover every facet of human life and soul experience, every aspect of man’s relationship with God, every aspect of the saint’s experience in this world and the next. Reading the Psalms is like an experiential roller coaster ride. In one psalm, you are with the psalmist in the midst of direst trouble, one’s very life hanging in the balance, the soul cast down, fear on every hand, God seeming to be far away.
The Psalms were written during the Davidic kingdom 3,000 years ago, but they are perfectly fitting for the Church age. Here, we see the church-age believer’s glorious God, lovely Saviour, preserved Scripture, new song, sure hope, persecution, trials, soul trouble, patient waiting, worship, congregational singing, and prophetic future.
Commentary Series
This series is designed in a unique format to be used as commentaries, as teaching courses, and for expository preaching. The commentaries are thorough, serious, broad, insightful, and practical, with an emphasis on application to the Christian life and ministry. Context is honored; words are defined; metaphors are explained; difficulties are tackled. The commentaries are packed with historical backgrounds and archaeological studies based on the author’s personal research, which is reflected in books such as Bible Times and Ancient Kingdoms and Jews in Fighter Jets. The interpretation is from a literal, dispensational perspective, and the King James Bible is explained but not criticized. There is no hint of modernism nor influence from compromised evangelicalism. The user will find no reference to or dependence upon men such as Origen, Jerome, Augustine, C.S. Lewis, Eberhard Nestle, or Bruce Metzger.
