Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Commentary on the Psalms, Vol. 1 present work consists of a translation of that portion of Ewald´s "Poets of the Old Testament," which relates to the Psalms and the Lamentations (comprising the introductory matter to the Psalms from the first half, and the whole of the second half of Part I). In following Ewald´s exposition, we feel that we are under the guidance of a powerful and independent mind, which carries a vast erudition with ease, and never allows its originality to be suppressed. His treatment of the Psalms is characterized by intense poetic and religious sympathy, and by a keen and discriminating historical imagination. The Commentary can hardly be termed theological; it contains the results of the application of purely literary and historical methods to the study of Hebrew poetry. This constitutes the specific scientific value of the work; and it is perhaps the best course to reserve the theological and Messianic aspects for separate treatment and discussion, as being matters on which difference of opinion and controversy prevail. Tho great service of Ewald consists in laying firmly the scientific basis, in applying the general laws of literature, which include the laws of psychology, to the study of the Old Testament. Ewald´s preface is interesting as containing some expression of his general views on this subject, with criticisms on the work of some of his eminent fellow-labourers in this field.
