We find this volume a strong aid for preaching Psalms, particularly for helping us read the Psalms as prayer and praise shaped by covenant faith.
It gives us clear sense of genre, movement, and pastoral purpose, and it helps us handle lament and confidence without sentimentality.
Why Should I Own This Commentary?
We should own it when we want help preaching the Psalms as Scripture for the gathered church. It encourages us to read carefully, then to pray and proclaim with honesty.
It is also practical. We are helped with structure and emphasis, which matters when a psalm turns quickly from complaint to hope.
