Straightforward

To write a commentary on the Book of Psalms is a mammoth task. The author’s understandable difficulty has been to keep the book within reasonable bounds. Theological, ethical and spiritual applications are not majored on and the commentary is section by section rather than verse by verse. The same restraint on space means that there is little room for the explanation of individual words in the psalms of which perhaps a reader may be unsure.
