The Case for the Psalms: why they are essential

Short Review: NT Wright turns his attention to the Psalms. This is more a pastoral call to keep the Psalms as a part of our regular worship than an academic treatise. The Psalms are not a primary research area for Wright, although the Psalms are very important to the theology of the New Testament that is Wright's area of expertise. This was originally a lectures given at Calvin College that he turned into a full length book.

In some ways this is an update to CS Lewis' book on the Psalms that I read earlier this year. Both were not academic looks at the psalms, not commentaries. Instead they were both stressing the importance of the Psalms.
