Augustine on the Psalms: Selected Expositions

For centuries, readers have turned to Saint Augustine’s expositions of the Psalms as a wellspring of spiritual insight. In these sermons, the great Bishop of Hippo interprets the ancient hymns of Israel as a mirror of the soul’s journey toward God. This edition presents a carefully chosen selection of Augustine’s most beloved expositions, rendered in clear, contemporary English while preserving the depth and warmth of the original. Whether reflecting on the penitence of Psalm 51, the trust of Psalm 23, or the longing of Psalm 63, Augustine’s words speak directly to the human heart. Here is a book of prayer, of wisdom, and of hope — for believers and seekers alike. Part of The Modern Wisdom Library.
