Homilies on the Psalms, Volume Three

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 third volume includes some of the most searching theological psalms in Scripture. Readers will encounter Augustine’s reflections on Psalm 73, with its enduring question of why the wicked prosper; Psalm 90, with its meditation on human frailty and divine eternity; and the great historical psalms, where Augustine traces the faithfulness of God through the history of his people. Throughout, psalms of lament, remembrance, trust, and praise become occasions for profound pastoral instruction and theological reflection.
