For those who treasure, love and pray the psalms, this book will be a sheer delight, and, if used in the classroom, it will offer up so much for lay people that they will . . . say "Hallelujah!"

Synopsis
The book of Psalms has been precious to countless people in many languages and countries over many centuries. It has expressed their hopes and fears, inspired their faith, and renewed their trust in God. Through the Psalms, the spiritual insight and religious heritage of ancient Israel have had a profound and lasting impact on the human race.The book of Psalms is also of great interest to biblical scholars, and scholarly study of the Psalms is in the midst of a sea change. A generation ago, the dominant tendency was to study individual psalms in relation to their literary forms and cultural functions. However, in recent years, studies have increasingly emphasized Hebrew poetry, the structure of the entire Psalter, and its development from earlier collections to a unified canonical book.In exploring these and other facets, this volume aims to bridge the gap between general introductions to the study of the Psalms and specialized literature. Written by members and guests of the Tyndale Fellowship Old Testament Study Group, it offers the insights of internationally recognized Old Testament scholars into the world of the Psalms.This volume will be a treasure to both students and scholars alike., The book of Psalms has been precious to countless people in many languages and countries over many centuries.

    The item was Exactly as described. The movie is a classic and I haven’t opened it yet as I’m waiting for movie night but it’s brand new in the seal still. The shipping was very Quick. They have an excellent customer service support that answered all my questions. The sticker price it would have sold for at the store was much less than I paid but it was fairly priced compared to the other listings. Over all I’m a satisfied customer and i wouldn’t hesitate to purchase from this buyer.

    Excellent customer service. There were problems with delivery that had NOTHING to do with the seller, who shipped it out quickly. Once I reached out to the seller to inquire about the issue, they responded quickly and offered a solution. Once I received the item, it was exactly as described. Very happy with my purchase and EXTREMELY happy with this seller. 5 Stars across the board! I will be back, Thank you! A+++++
