Interpreting the Psalms nonetheless stands as a useful and usable guide to exegesis of this theologically rich book, and deserves widespread use as a course textbook. Tilhører serien
This second contribution to the Handbooks for Old Testament Exegesis series continues the admirable tradition set by Robert B. Chisholm Jr. in Interpreting the Historical Books. A valuable resource for pastors and students, Interpreting the Psalms begins by explaining the nature of Hebrew poetry and the purpose of the Psalms. An accomplished scholar of the Psalms, Mark Futato next explores issues related to properly interpreting Israel's songbook, and concludes with a sample of moving from interpretation to proclamation. A glossary is included. Ingen biblioteksbeskrivelser fundet. |

Mark Furtato, a professor at Reformed Theological Seminary in Orlando, wrote the book as a guide to sound exegesis and interpretation of the Psalms. He begins with the offering the reader a skill set for interpreting Hebrew poetry which is useful for much more than the Psalms, then moves to a chapter describing how the whole of the Psalms are arranged for a specific purpose. I found this chapter to be quite enlightening.
His third chapter, covering the historicity and textual criticism as applied to the Psalms is rather academic, but not out of place for his task. The set of resources with which he ends this chapter is quite useful for a student of the Psalms.
His fourth chapter on the categories of the Psalms and how to recognize them was quite helpful. His final two chapters on proclaiming the Psalms and practicing its principles will be most useful for exegetes, though helpful to any student of the Psalms.
In short, a clear, readable and useful tool in deepening understanding of the Psalms for any student of the Bible. ( )
