Homer Lee homer970759ff — The Psalms have been described as the "prayerbook of the Church", which indeed they are, for praying the psalms is a fundamental element of Catholic liturgical prayer, both at Mass and at the Liturgy of the Hours. The Psalms are equally valuable for personal prayer, for they contain the whole gamut of human attitudes and sentiments with which people can and should address the Almighty: praise, adoration, petition, contrition, thanksgiving, and emotional expressions ranging from intense joy to heartfelt anger and grief. This particular edition of the Psalms is a new translation prepared by the Catholic Book Publishing Company for private devotion. While not meant for liturgical use, the translation is very accurate and quite edifying. However, in my opinion, the best aspect of this small book is the footnotes. The scholars who prepared these notes did an excellent job of explaining what the psalms meant both in their original context in the life of ancient Israel and also what they mean for Christians praying these psalms today. Taking the traditional Catholic view that "the New Testament lies hidden in the Old, and the Old is made manifest in the New" (Augustine), the preparers of this volume attempt to show how many of the psalms attain their fullest meaning in relation to the life of Christ and his Church. This is a great resource for anyone who wants to know more about the Psalms...a description which should apply to ANY Catholic who is serious about his or her prayer life!

Karen Lo _lle_h — I hadn't read a mystery novel in a long time. Theya ren't really my thing, although this one was pretty good, until the end. The ending left me dissatisfied, like the author suddenly got tired of the plot and just tried to get through the last 50 pages as quickly as possible. A bit of a disappointment...
