Description

Remarkably enough, there is a scarcity of modern commentaries on the Psalms for the more general reader, though after the Gospels, they are probably the most widely-read part of the Bible.

No one is more qualified to write on the Psalms than John Eaton.

He is a distinguished Old Testament scholar and has spent a lifetime studying the Psalms.

This commentary is addressed to the wide readership.

There is a long and highly readable introduction giving a background to the Psalms; then follow the 150 Psalms, each in Eaton's translation.

He explains the background to the Psalms and their content in a way that makes them interesting and relevant to the present.

The discussion of each psalm ends with a related Christian prayer, either from the tradition or written by Eaton himself.

John Eaton is recognized as one of the world's leading experts on Psalms: this commentary is the culmination of his life's work.

John Eaton lectured in Old Testament at the University of Birmingham until his retirement.

He is the author of many books, especially on aspects of the Psalms.
