Alexander Ryrie offers an exciting way of using the Psalms in our spiritual lives, rooted in both scholarship and a sympathetic feel for the literary genius of the psalmists. While they have been interpreted in many ways over the years, recent interest in the Bible as literature has opened a fresh approach to the Psalms as poems addressed to God, in which truth is expressed largely through poetic images. Ryrie's sensitive analysis reveals the extraordinary intimacy of the relationship with God as experienced by the writers of the Hebrew Bible, and the roots of a historic faith that is based on an awareness of the abiding presence of God and a personal relationship with the Creator, rather than on law or obedience.
