This book examines 16 psalms which portray the Lord Jesus throughout his life. The Psalms are the heartland of the Old Testament. Wrung from the soul in times of deep emotion, they strike emphatic chords in the spirits of the people of God. Deep within this verdant land are hidden the richest veins of truth - the Messianic Psalms- which yield their treasures to those who love the One these songs exquisitely portray. In The Messianic Psalms, the author invites us to look with him at these sixteen psalms which portray the Lord Jesus at His birth and with His Bride: in His temptation and betrayal; as the last Adam, the Headstone, and the King of Glory. Taken in the chronological order of the life of our Lord, we feel like we have joined the disciples in the upper room when He said: "These are the words which I spoke unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the . . . psalms, concerning Me." These psalms are a veritable portrait gallery of the Christ!
