George A. F. Knight conveys the timeless beauty and contemporary relevance of Psalms 73-150, exploring their Old and New Testament significance in the context of God's redemptive plan.

For George A. F. Knight, reading the Psalms is a "glorious and exciting experience." Writing in this spirit, he captures the beauty of these timeless hymns of praise and conveys both their original meaning and their application for today. In presenting the last half of the Psalter, George A. F. Knight discusses the meaning of the Psalms in the Old Testament, their application in the New Testament, and their challenge for today's readers. Psalms 73 to 150 belong to the later period of Israel's experience of God's steadfast love, recalling the story of how ordinary, sinful people responded in both faith and denial to God's actions. Now, reflecting on the Psalms with the help of this commentary, the reader can glimpse the total pattern of God's redemptive plan as it unfolded and as it has continued throughout history.

The Daily Study Bible series seamlessly continues the legacy of William Barclay's renowned New Testament series by delving into the texts of the Old Testament, weaving together ancient wisdom and modern insights for a transformative reading experience. Perfectly tailored for individual study, spirited group discussions, or classroom exploration, the Daily Study Bible series offers an indispensable resource for spiritual seekers and scholars alike. Within these volumes, readers will encounter a profound exploration of the Scriptures, uncovering the profound messages they held in the past and discerning their relevance in the present.
