Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Metrical Version of the Hebrew Psalter: With Explanatory Notes The Book of Psalms has very justly been described as "an epitome of the Bible." In it, the great doctrines of the Gospel, and the experience of all believers, in every age, are set forth in the most lively manner, "in words that breathe, and thoughts that burn." It is not surprising, therefore, that this portion of sacred scripture has always attracted a peculiar degree of attention. Yet, there is great reason to fear that the remark of Bishop Horsley is but too well founded, when he says, "Of all the books of the Old Testament, the Book of Psalms is the most universally read, but, I fear, as little as any understood." In proving the mystical and spiritual signification of the Psalms, the same celebrated critic quotes the words of David himself, at the close of his life: "David, the son of Jesse, said, and the man who was raised up on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet Psalmist of Israel, said, The Spirit of Jehovah spake by me, and His word was in my tongue." (2 Sam. xxiii. 1, 2.) About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
