The Poetry of the Bible, and of the Psalms, in particular, is unique for the richness of its literary environment.In this commentary series, that richness is highlighted as the text of God's word is evaluated through the lens of the structures, forms, tools, figures and devices that so characterize it. In this process, a perspective is provided that will lead to a better and fuller appreciation of the Psalms as God's utterly unique and most beautifully written word.
