good book on introduction to Psalms

by Gordon Wenham 


Digital List Price: $16.99
Kindle Price: US$3.99
Save $13.00 (77%)

 One of the most respected Old Testament scholars of our time introduces us to the history of scholarship on the Psalter and provides hermeneutical guidelines for interpreting the book— making accessible to us the transforming messages of the Psalms.

“This book’s many virtues make it instructive and refreshing: I appreciate its stress on the psalms’ place in public worship, and the speech-act notion of self-involvement in singing. Wenham also offers helpful arguments for respecting the titles of the psalms. And the creative approach to ‘canonical reading’ allows us to view each psalm both as a composition for public singing and as a part of the canonical book (which may guide our interpretation). I heartily commend this work!”

Instead the Verbum one (the Catholic edition of Logos running on exactly the same platform) is way more attractive (even with the added Luke commentary by L. T. Johnson!):
