Description
Exploring the Psalms, Vol. 2: Psalms 42-72 – Dr. John Phillips
Hardcover | Loizeaux Brothers, 1989
Overview
Exploring the Psalms, Volume 2: Psalms 42-72 by Dr. John Phillips offers a deep and enlightening analysis of these chapters, rich in their themes of hope, trust, and devotion. With a clear and engaging style, Dr. Phillips presents interpretations that make the Psalms accessible and meaningful, providing readers with insights that highlight their spiritual and theological relevance. This volume is an invaluable resource for pastors, teachers, and Bible students.
The literal and modern meaning of many Hebraic words and expressions is given, illuminating many familiar passages for the reader. Preachers and teachers will find many practical contemporary illustrations taken from the author’s personal experiences. The prophetic nature of many psalms is clearly expounded and there are many allusions to the types and shadows of Christ that abound in these great poetic passages.
Each chapter deals with one psalm, while some of the chapter headings whet the appetite for further study. “The Thirsty Soul,” “The Poisonous Tongue,” and “Knocked Down but Not Knocked Out,” are a few examples. Also, wherever the psalmist is known, his background and motive for writing are given. Some are designated “Orphan Psalms” in the absence of any clear knowledge of the writer’s identity.
Serious students of the Word, as well as the casual reader who has only a superficial knowledge of the Bible, will find much food for reflection and collateral study, using the copious references the author employs to illustrate his comments.
