THOTC: Psalms

Geoffrey Grogan here tackles the growing field of Psalms research and
presents an accessible theological treatment of the Psalter. He begins by
surveying and evaluating the main scholarly approaches to Psalms and then
provides exegesis of all the psalms, emphasizing their distinctive messages.
Grogan follows with a full discussion of the Psalter's theological themes,
highlighting the implications of its fivefold arrangement. He considers the
massive contribution of the Psalter to biblical theology, including the way the
psalms were used and interpreted by Jesus and the New Testament writers. The
volume closes with an analysis of the contemporary relevance of the Psalms and
a step-by-step guide to preparing a Psalms sermon, based on Psalm
8.'Geoffrey Grogan whetted readers' appetites with his earlier work
on the theology of the Psalms. A proven exegete and theologian, he now brings
this double gift to the text. He also provides an introduction to the Psalms as
ancient literature. In keeping with the Two Horizons series, he presents the
theology of the Psalter and evaluates it in terms of the Bible and Christian
doctrine.' - Leslie C. AllenSeries: Two Horizons Old Testament
