Author Biography

Dan Estes is not only a highly competent Bible scholar and a minister of the gospel of Jesus Christ, he is also an accomplished musician. He has been teaching and preaching the Psalms for several decades and has written several major books and commentaries, as well as many journal articles, on the Old Testament poetic books. Not only an expert in interpreting Hebrew poetry, but as a musician Estes appreciates the transformative power the psalms have as songs. After a brief introduction to this second half of the Psalter, the author analyzes each psalm. He begins with helpful comments on the form and purpose of the psalm, then the meaning of individual verses, then the theology of the whole, including how it fits with the rest of the Bible. He concludes by suggesting how we might respond to the psalm individually and corporately. Studying the Psalms with Dr. Estes will provide a highly satisfying experience for any Bible student.
