Three books on the Psalms

Posted by
And while Phil's reading up on imputation, here are three new ones on the psalms:

J A Motyer, Treasures of the King: Psalms from the Life of David (IVP - UK).  Good devotional book.  Has Motyer ever written anything that isn't worth reading?  I suppose not having a blog helps with that one.

Richard P Belcher, Jr, The Messiah and the Psalms (Christian Focus).  Offers advice on preaching Christ from the psalms, but worth the read even for non-preachers.

John D Witvliet, The Biblical Psalms in Christian Worship (Eerdmans).  Great resource book with some good bibliography.  A bit `emergent church meets Eastern Orthodoxy meets the CRC' at points, but worth a purchase by pastors and worship leaders.  Nice discussion of how psalms can -- and should -- be at the core of corporate worship.  But you all put the psalms at the centre of corporate worship already.  Ahem.
