The Book of Psalms is filled with resplendent God-intoxication, authenticity, staggering courage and honesty, and fiery religious passion that capture the full range of religious expression and emotion. The Psalms have exercised a profound influence on Jewish prayer.

Unlike the narrative books of the Bible, the Book of Psalms is a collection of poems and songs based on different experiences and emotions that the biblical poets wish to memorialize and preserve for eternity. Based on traditional and modern sources, Rabbi Hayyim Angel’s Psalms: A Companion Volume explores the history, meaning, significance, and theological ramifications of several individual Psalms as well as the book as a whole.
