us all a considerable gift in this fresh reading of the book of
Psalms. . . . Their new translation of the psalms and the attached
notes as well as attention to recent scholarship provide a treasure

"From careful text-critical and philological analysis to thoughtful
theological and pastoral reflections, the authors have created a
most useful commentary on the Psalms. While valuable to scholars,
these interpretations will be especially helpful to pastors in
their teaching and preaching ministry. The multiple authorial
voices further enhance the interpretive richness of the volume."
