David Emanuel is Professor of Hebrew Bible and Language at Nyack College in Manhattan.
"Since the psalms may appear to be aimlessly thrown together, many
readers correspondingly read the psalms randomly. In this book,
Emanuel convincingly demonstrates not only how the psalms were
written to refer to other parts of the Old Testament but also are
carefully arranged in a particular order, providing a guide to help
readers engage the richness of this beautiful book in the Old
Testament."
--Charlie Trimm, Biola University
"With an eye for the compilers' careful craftsmanship paired with
an ear attuned to intertextual conversations, Emanuel serves as an
excellent guide for considering the rich connections of the psalms
arranged together as Book 1 of the Psalter. Through its balanced
approach and clear style, this investigation of juxtaposition and
allusion in Psalms 1-41 will become an invaluable resource for both
seasoned scholars and students alike."
--Michelle A. Stinson, Denver Seminary
"Students and scholars alike will find an abundance of riches in
Emanuel's attentive work. For anyone wishing to expand their
repertoire of means and methods for thoughtful, fresh engagement
with the psalms, this commentary is a must-have."
--Kevin Chau, University of the Free State
