About this product

Product Information

"We delight to praise what we enjoy because the praise not merely expresses but completes the enjoyment; it is its appointed consummation." The Psalms were written as songs; we should read them as poetry, in the spirit of lyric, not as sermons or instructions. But they are also shrouded in mystery, and in this careful reading from one of our most trusted fellow travelers, C.S. Lewis helps us begin to reveal their meaning in our daily lives and in the world. Reflecting again and anew on these beloved passages, we can find both joy and difficulty, but also, always, real enlightenment and moments of transcendent grace. "This book may not tell the reader all he would like to know about the Psalms, but it will tell him a good deal he will not like to know about himself." -- Times Literary Supplement " Lewis] . . . displays in this volume the same keen insight and gifted tongue that have made him one of the most highly respected essayists using the English language." -- Chicago Sunday Tribune "Full of illuminating observations." -- New York Times

Reviews
Internationally renowned because of his earlier books, among them tape Letters, Surprised by Joy, Mere Christianity, C. S. Lewis - making religion provoking, memorable and delightful is still more - latest Reflections on the Psalms. Though he protests that he writes - learned about things in which he is unlearned himself, the reader is likely- thank God for his wise ignorance. Here especially he throws a clear lightly or not, on many of the difficult psalms, such as those which abound with and cursing, and a self-centeredness which seems to assume' that God must be side of the psalmist. These things, which make some psalm singers pre- not there, have a right and proper place, as Mr. Lewis shows us. They - of Psalms more precious still. Many readers owe it to themselves to read - flections if only to learn this hard but simple lesson. Urge everyone to this book.

5 out of 5 stars
by pilgrimwbJun 22, 2023
An intellectual scholar takes on the logical implications of a book comprised primarily of poetry.
The author alone makes the book worth five stars. The book he has chosen to analyze is one of the most popular writings within Scripture.

A New Perspective
I love Lewis's take on the Psalms. Anything that makes me think in a new direction is a good thing. A good little book for "seek and ye shall find".
