Reading the Psalms as Scripture

The psalms cultivate a life of prayer grounded in Scripture.In Reading the Psalms as Scripture, James M. Hamilton Jr. and Matthew Damico guide the reader to delight in the spiritual artistry of the psalms. Psalms is a carefully arranged book saturated in Scripture. The psalmists drew from imagery and themes from earlier Scripture, which are then developed by later Scripture and fulfilled in Christ. The book of psalms advances God's grand story of redemption, and it gives us words to pray by drawing us into this story. When we meditate on the promises and patterns in the psalms, we can read, pray, and sing them with faithfulness.Table of Contents: IntroductionReading the Psalms as a BookReading the Psalms with Their SuperscriptionsReading the Psalms as Individual CompositionsReading the Psalms in the PsalterReading the Psalms in Light of Earlier ScriptureReading the Psalms and Messianic TypologyReading the Psalms as Interpreted by Later Old Testament AuthorsReading the Psalms as Interpreted by New Testament AuthorsSinging the Psalms as ChristiansSeven Theses on How to Read the Psalms
