Psalms For Life by Spck
Compares reading the Psalms to walking in the mountains. This work explores the poetry as a never failing source of challenge, comfort and encouragement. Beginning with Psalm 1 and continuing through to Psalm 150, it provides a short reflection on each psalm, explaining the poet's essential message, and ending with a brief meditative prayer.
"'Eaton clearly loves the psalms and seeks to share his scholarly wisdom and personal piety with his readers..A pleasant surprise for readers will be the high-quality prayers that conclude the commentary section for each psalm. Readers will learn much about praying the psalms through Eaton's models...It is a welcome development for a leading Psalms scholar to write explicitly for a general audience.' Brian Russell, Asbury Theological Seminary, SBL Review 'Eaton has done believers a great favour with this book.' Philippus J. Botha, University of Pretoria, SBL Review"
John Eaton is a distinguished scholar who for many years has made the Psalms his special study. He lectured in Old Testament at the University of Birmingham until his retirement.
