Overview

The Psalms are treasured poetry that reflect the prayer and praise of ancient Israel. Every generation opens the Psalms for inspiration, comfort, hope, and encouragement. They’re also a rich source of truth about God, humanity, and salvation. The authors of the New Testament understood this, quoting the Psalms more than any other Old Testament book to establish key doctrines. The Psalms tell the story of God’s anointed king, his kingdom, and his people. They point forward to the Messiah—David’s Greater Son who reigns forever and ever.

In the first and second volumes of a three-volume commentary on the Psalms, James Johnston walks readers through Psalms 1–106, offering exegetical and pastoral insights along the way. Accessible and engaging, this resource will help anyone interested in studying, teaching, or preaching the Bible read the Psalms in a deliberately canonical and Christ-centered way.

This includes the newest volume The Psalms: Rejoice, the Lord Is King, Volume 2—Psalms 42 to 106. Both the new volume and this collection are scheduled to ship in January 2025.

While being sensitive to the original historical context of the Psalms as the prayer and songbook of the Jews, Johnston is keenly aware that there is a Christocentric end to which the Psalms point and a Son in whom they find fulfillment. Because of this, Johnston recognizes that all the Psalms are messianic, and, therefore, are also the Christian’s prayer, song, and life book.

—Gregory C. Strand, director of biblical theology and credentialing, Evangelical Free Church of America

James Johnston’s masterful exposition of the Psalms is theologically rich, pastorally wise, and spiritually rewarding. He clearly explains the distinctiveness of each psalm and then shows, in the light of the New Testament, how each psalm ultimately points forward to fulfillment in Christ. Even Christians who have read the Psalms for their entire lives, as I have, will find refreshing new insight in page after page of this excellent book!

—Wayne Grudem, Distinguished Research Professor Emeritus of Theology and Biblical Studies, Phoenix Seminary

Psalms will be a treasured volume in this series. The original text is taken seriously and the gospel is made clear. In reading it, my own affections for Christ were delightfully energized. Johnston weds his love for God’s poetry to his heart, which is so joyfully pledged to God’s people.

—David R. Helm, Senior Pastor, Christ Church Chicago; Chairman, The Charles Simeon Trust
