Présentation de l'éditeur

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.
