Overview
Even by the high standards of the Psalms, the poems contained in Books 3 and 4 (Psalms 73-106) are extraordinary in their insight and inspiration. They include memorable works by Asaph, the sons of Korah, and Moses and have laid the groundwork for many beloved hymns, including ""Joy to the World!"" and ""Praise, My Soul, the King of Heaven."" In this thoughtful, devotional commentary, pastor-theologian Richard D. Phillips shows how these psalms' particular honesty about the trials in our human experience magnify the justice and grace of our sovereign God. He alone offers the remedy to life's fiercest struggles. In our spiritual walk of faith, the psalmists take believers by the hand and guide us in our communion with God, pointing always to Christ.

Both informative to the mind and encouraging to the soul, Richard Phillips's sermonic commentary leads the believer through valley and mountaintop to discover that wherever we are, our faithful God is there with us and will minister to our every need. -- Joel R. Beeke President, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary Rick Phillips is known for his careful exegesis, faithful exposition, theological insights, and pastoral concern. He beautifully blends these qualities in this excellent commentary on Psalms 73 106. This book should be close at hand for any preacher or teacher of the Word of God who wishes to understand the holy text & proclaim its inerrant truth. -- Daniel L. Akin President, Professor, Preaching and Theology, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary With the warm pastoral insights that we've come to expect from him, Phillips consistently demonstrates how these songs and prayers find their fulfillment in Christ, the ultimate singer of the Psalms. -- Stephen Coleman Assistant Professor, Old Testament and Biblical Languages, Westminster Theological Seminary
