Abingdon Old Testament Commentary - Psalms 1-72

Clifford differs from other commentators on the Psalms chiefly in his concern with the inner dramatic logic of the Psalms - how they organize the experience and desires of the pray-er and bring them to a proper conclusion. His primary concern is to help readers see the pattern and progression within the Psalms while at the same time attending to the richness of their words and the texture of their imagery.
