Since the psalms are Old Testament prayers by origin, their teaching is very incomplete about trials, whose full meaning was revealed only through Christs suffering. The psalms contain only faint hints about the fact that in Gods perspective life really begins with death. But the psalms remain unparalleled expressions of souls who struggle to hold on to God no matter what and who experience moments of surpassing joy.The purpose of this fine book is to help Christians grasp the basic meaning of each psalm so that the act of praying them might truly become an elevation of the mind to God. After providing general background on the psalms, including reflections on their use as both Jewish and Christian prayers, Stanley Jaki offers commentary on each individual psalm. He avoids exegetical minutiae, providing instead precisely enough explanation of the original cultural and theological setting of each Scripture to let the usefulness of praying the psalms fully emerge.A widely respected Christian scholar, Jaki has recited all 150 psalms at least once every two weeks for the past sixty years. As a result, this book not only offers learned insight into the meaning of the psalms but is also built on personal experience, making it a powerful devotional tool as well. Readers will find here helpful pointers for turning the recitation of the psalms into living prayers relevant to todays troubled world.
