About This Book

A series of lectures outlines the Psalter's role in Christian worship, offering general interpretive principles and addressing difficulties of language and liturgical use. It examines how psalms have been read christologically, how the Church employs them corporately in daily offices and devotions, and supplies practical notes and an appendix suggesting Christian application for each psalm. The approach is pastoral and instructional, aimed at helping ordinary worshippers grasp broad patterns of meaning rather than providing detailed verse-by-verse commentary.
