    Probably the best academic and broadly evangelical commentary on the Psalms is Allen Ross' enormous 3 volume set. It's outstanding on almost every level, even if one can rightly quibble with it here and there. Other valuable commentaries are from Bruce Waltke and Gordon Wenham. But my favorite is perhaps the little known commentary in the New Bible Commentary by Alec Motyer. Motyer has also published other books on the Psalms as well as done his own translation of the Psalms with a running commentary. Motyer was a wonderfully humble scholar who taught alongside other greats loke JI Packer, yet Motyer always said he wasn't a scholar so much as "a simple man who loves the Bible".

    What a coincidence. A couple weeks ago I decided I wanted to try and memorize all the Psalms. No set deadline, just try and have them all in the cranium and heart as I grow in my walk. This series will be a blessing in trying to familiarize myself with the Psalms :)
    “I have stored up your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you.”
    ‭‭Psalm‬ ‭119‬:‭11

    This is soo amazing!! Thank you JM! I was just thinking about this past week how Jesus is Torah. Jesus as Torah fits so well into this Psalm. The more we breath Jesus into our soul, the more Torah fills our lives with growth and beauty. Not to mention holiness.
    Enjoy SBL JM 😊!

    Hope they re-release that Bible too, we got a puny one used! Beautiful mint condition but very small print. Maybe they can up the font (dare to dream). You mentioned it came out in two sizes. Love all the history in it, it's worth the squint!

    I’m commenting again because I just rewatched it. This is just pure gold-I love how you connect this with other scripture and even explain the Hebrew. God has truly blessed you with many gifts, and I am so glad you choose to share them with us. P.S. What do you mean, cassette tapes? 8-track all the way!

    Absolutely excellent, very much appreciated. I know this type of topic will probably not attract vast number of views, but these will make a fantastic resource over time. I intend to follow the series whenever I have time to give these videos the concentration they deserve. Please continue with this project.

    Our church has been working on learning to sing the Psalms for almost 2 decades. We're at about 130 Psalms, with several versions of some or parts of some. There are many resources out there for this. I'd encourage all Christians to learn to sing the Psalms.

    Great work, I like how you have the hebrew, greek and english translations. Thank you for your hard work. Also, the NIV you use, is it a word for word translation. Honestly just curious. I think the best translation out there...is the one you will faithfully read. Quoting, Michael Heiser, not my original thought, but nonetheless a very true statement. There are too many arguments over this and that translation being inferior. Not that you are doing that, I am basically just starting conversation. God Bless you..kinda feel weird now putting that since you mentioned how it is watered down... You're right it is, but I mean it. God Bless.

    Yeah, there is no justice in this world. You can be a bad person, evil, hurt other people and worse, and unless someone or something stronger than you corrects your behavior, you will get away with it. So this psalm says that evil will not prosper, but that is demonstrably false.

      More than any people in the ancient world, Israel knew that things in this life don't always seem to work out. That's why books like Ecclesiastes and Job are in their same Scriptures. And as I note specifically in this video, it's a song, not a philospohical treatise of how things work out prior to the final Day of YHWH.
      I'm glad you're watching DiscipleDojo videos. I'm just hoping some interpretive humility seeps in at some point. Jewish people aren't dumb. They have a rich history of lament and eschatological longing that you should consider before making purely naturalistic comments like the one above.

      Yeah, I have heard theists talking about, "that is just my cross to bear," as if there is no option to bad stuff. Job praising his god after his children were killed, well, I would not have done that. I think if your hopes are for all the inequities of this world to get worked out in some "sweet bye and bye" you will be disappointed.
      As far as naturalistic comments, can you demonstrate another way to see things? Claims otherwise tend to be without evidence. Just saying.
      Funny your superhero mythology fetish. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis were into different mythologies for some reason. I also note youtuber Dan McClellan www.youtube.com/@maklelan tends to have such imagery in the background of his vids. There is something about those that study religion, believing it or not, that seems to mean the person will gravitate to these mythologies.
