Psalms: An Expositional Commentary, Vol. 2

Psalms 42-106 (The Expositional Commentary Series)

By: James Montgomery Boice

Narrated by: John Lescault

“I have always thought of the psalms as the deepest and most spiritual portion of the Word of God."—James Montgomery Boice.

Covering Psalms 42–106, this second volume on the book of Psalms portrays the realities of human life and the peace that is found in God alone. James Montgomery Boice explores the life of David—his pain, trials, joy, and spiritual aspirations.

• Psalm 47 reveals God as king of all the earth and calls people of all nations to praise Him.
• Psalm 62 speaks God’s peace to anyone discouraged, depressed, or threatened.
• Psalm 100 invites us to “enter His courts with thanksgiving.”

This expositional commentary on one of the Bible’s most popular books combines careful scholarship and clear communication in a verse-by-verse and section-by-section reading of the biblical text. Integrating thoughtful interpretation with contemporary insight for daily living, James Montgomery Boice explains the meaning of the text and relates the text’s concerns to the church, Christianity, and the world in which we live.

Deep Dive

A great deep dive in the Psalms, sound biblical commentary and research.

There’s a section around Psalms 90-100 where the chapter breaks doesn’t align, that creates a reference/ placeholder confusion.

Overall worth it

Author overlays much of hi NT theology. Not enough of OT insights. Somehow author completely overlooks psalmists references to resurrection.

Great commentary

This is the second of three commentaries on the Psalms. It is a great read and now I will be listening to the third.

No chapters

I love the book however no chapters so it is very difficult to find the information you need
