Expositions of the Psalms 73-98
Maria Boulding (Trans), Saint Augustine, John Rotelle (Ed)Paperback 2002-06-01
Augustine was convinced that in the meeting between scriptural declarations and the faith-experience of his own
time, and only there, does exposition attain its true goal. 510 pp.; (2002)
Publisher Description
Fourth volume of the long-awaited translation of one of Augustines classics and a great work in Christian literature. Newly translated by Maria Boulding, O.S.B., whose masterful translation of Augustines Confessions in the same series has been praised as being of a different level of excellence from practically anything else in the market (Bishop Rowan Williams, Monmouth, England). As the psalms are a microcosm of the Old Testament, so the Expositions of the Psalms can be seen as a microcosm of Augustinian thought. They recapitulate and focus the experiences of Augustines personal life, his theological reflections, and his pastoral concerns as Bishop of Hippo.
