An illuminating guide to one of the most familiar---and beloved---books of the Old Testament. Blending a scholar's knowledge with a believer's devotion, Goldingay explores Psalms 1--72 to reveal four ways the writers speak to God---in words of praise, thanksgiving, trust, and supplication. His thought-provoking insights show how each poem is relevant to our contemporary life. 214 pages, softcover from Westminster John Knox.
