Psalms and Biblical Exegesis

Psalms presents some of the most interesting problems for exegesis in the Old Testament

Psalms combines fun, comfort, and problems of interpretation like no other book of the Bible. People are comforted by many passages, such as Psalm 91, encouraged and motivated by passages such as Psalm 78, and awed by such beautiful passages as Psalm 104. At the same time various Psalms taken as Messianic prophecies invite discussion, and some others, such as Psalm 137 are very troubling. As a result, some of your most fruitful study of the Old Testament can be done in the Psalms.

Reflections on the Psalms (Harvest Book)

	Energion.com Description: I strongly recommend this book for those troubled by the Psalms and some of the difficult prayers there, as well as those who are simply inspired by them. If I might make a personal recommendation, I would recommend our Energion Publications book Who's Afraid of the Old Testament God? for further thinking on these issues.
