Excerpt from Ten Studies in the Psalms There is, perhaps, no part of the Old Testament which speaks so simply and directly to the universal heart as the Psalter. Yet even the most familiar psalms come home to us with increased freshness and power when, by sympathetic study, we have traveled back to the world in which their writers stood, and learned to look out upon it with their eyes. The short studies in this volume are an attempt to interpret, in this way, a few of the psalms that deal with important aspects of the religious life, and to show their vital bearing upon the life of to-day. In their doubts, struggles, and aspirations, those ancient men are very near us, and they speak to us with an accent that is strangely modern. I have tried to make this plain in the course of the exposition, and to illustrate their kinship with us by quotation from modern writers. The treatment of the psalms here selected is expository. But, without. Being didactic or homiletic, I have at the same time sought to make it practically helpful, by gathering up the study of each psalm in a series of personal questions, which are intended both to carry the reader into the heart of the psalm, and also to enable him to search his own inner life. I desire here to express my obligation to Messrs. Charles Serib ner's Sons for their generous courtesy in allowing me to reprint, from my volume on The Messages of the Psalmists in The Mes sages of the Bible Series the paraphrase of the psalms here selected for study.

Here is a book about the Psalms which are the devotional center of the Bible, adored by not only the people of Israel but by New Testament believers generally. The Psalms are grouped into five books, each of which has a central theme. These divisions are preceded by an outline and analysis of the Psalms as to content and purpose. While each of the Psalms are analyzed in turn, they are also examined as they relate to their grouping. It is this synthetic approach which will make it particularly valuable to all students of the Bible. To facilitate the study of the Psalms, the complete text of each Psalm has been printed preceding its own analysis. Dr. Morgan has long been recognized as one of the great Bible expositors of modern times, and this book deserves a worthy place alongside his other works.

Excerpt from A Fresh Approach to the Psalms The following chapters do not make any claim to originality. There is nothing they contain which is not familiar to Old Testament scholars but it is hoped that they may be of interest and use to many who are not experts, for the writer has been at pains, apart from his own researches, to consult a number of the most modern commentaries on the Psalms, as well as some which are not of recent date. Moreover, some subjects are dealt with, which, for Obvious reasons, are not discussed in Commentaries; but which, nevertheless, have a certain bearing on the study of the Psalms. Readers who are not in a position to consult many books, may be glad to have these subjects placed before them we mean, such subjects as the music of the ancient east; music among the Hebrews; the liturgical use of the psalms the psalms in the worship of the ancient synagogue the origin of the synagogue; the psalms in the Christian Church.
