Homilies on the Psalms, Volume Four

Augustine’s remains one of the most significant works of patristic biblical interpretation. In these sermons, the Psalms are not treated merely as ancient poetry, but as the living prayer book of the Church—the voice of Christ, the voice of the believer, and the voice of the people of God across the ages. This final volume includes some of the most beloved and climactic psalms in Scripture. Readers will encounter Augustine’s reflections on the Songs of Ascents, where the Church is portrayed as a pilgrim people journeying toward the heavenly city; Psalm 119, with its sustained meditation on the law and word of God; and the final hymns of praise culminating in Psalm 150. Throughout, psalms of thanksgiving, worship, wisdom, and triumph become occasions for profound pastoral instruction and theological reflection.
