Subjects: Bible. Commentaries.; Bible.
Abstract: "The Psalms make up the most popular, most universally loved and used book in the Bible, which is the most widely read book in the world.  They are hymns, songs, poems, and prayers -- at once formal and informal, liturgical and spontaneous, communal and individual. As a result, they have many layers of meaning. In this work, Peter Kreeft focuses on a dozen of the best-known psalms, including Psalms 23 and 51. He leads the reader through his personal explorations of this deep ocean of divinely inspired spiritual water, pulling up treasures for the soul along the way." --
