Hidden Treasure in the Psalms

Hidden Treasure in the Psalms

The Psalms of the Old Testament are a wonderful source of inspiration and wisdom, ranking alongside the poetry of Homer, Dante, Shakespeare, and Goethe. Successive translations and association with outdated doctrines have nevertheless caused much of their original value to be lost.

In this authoritative book, Rudolf Frieling demonstrates a unique gift for uncovering these hidden treasures, and presenting them afresh. His scholarly grasp of the original Hebrew language and his profound sense of the mystical and even esoteric significance of the sacred poetry make these studies a unique guide to one of the most beautiful books of the Old Testament.
