It should be noted that the verse numbers of psalms are sometimes one higher in the Hebrew text than those given in our English Bibles. Finally, I must express my gratitude to Professor David Clines, who read the proofs with great care and thereby prevented many errors from entering the text. I am especially grateful to Professor Whybray for his comments on the manuscript, and I also wish to thank Dr Susan Gillingham and Miss Clare Garner (a second year undergraduate) who kindly commented on earlier drafts. I have long felt the need for an introduction to the Psalms suitable for undergraduates (and others) which is both comprehensive and readable, and I trust this work will fulfil that need.
Whybray for the invitation to write on the Psalms for the 'Old Testament Guides' series, and for his patience in waiting for the manuscript.
