Synopsis: |
Between 1515 and 1533, Erasmus Wrote Commentaries On Eleven Psalms. His principal aim was, as in his Paraphrases, to contribute through the exposition of the Bible to the renewal of preaching and devotional literature. Sacred scripture was at the heart of Erasmus' spirituality because in it he discovered the workings of divine grace, the guiding hand of providence that brings meaning to the scattered events of history and even to the fumbled efforts of the individual life.His Expositions of the Psalms make up three volumes of the CWE, 63-65. This first volume contains commentaries on four psalms: An Exposition of the First Psalm, 'Blessed the Man, ' Principally on the Tropological Level; A Commentary on the Second Psalm, 'Why Did the Nations Rage?; A Paraphrase on the Third Psalm, 'O Lord, How Have My Tormentors Multiplied?'; and A Sermon on the Fourth Psalm. Professor Baker-Smith's introduction is not only an indispensable guide and companion to Volumes 63-65 but also a ground-breaking contribution to the understanding and appreciation of this neglected area of Erasmus studies. |
