In the Presence of My Enemies: Psalms 25–37 is unavailable, but you can change that!

The Psalms can be very helpful, but they can also be hard. Following on from The Way of the Righteous in the Muck of Life and Slogging Along the Paths of Righteousness, Dale Ralph Davis delves into Psalms 25 to 37. Using his own recognisable humour and razor-sharp observations these expositions help us to engage with the conflict in these twelve psalms.

He wants to stretch our faith to take in the infinite dimensions of Yahweh’s unchanging love and goodness. That’s the purpose of verses 5–6, beginning, as they do, with ‘Yahweh’ as the first word and ending with ‘Yahweh’ as the last word. And it is so delightfully refreshing—He has taken us out of the dark hole where the wicked is scheming (vv. 1–4) into the limitless spaces of unchanging love. The change of mood here reminds me of an incident noted in World magazine a few years ago. Dorothy Fletcher
