The Psalms / Tehilim Volume IV (Psalms 86 to 118)

The "Commented Bible" collection contains: the Hebrew text; its French translation; verse-by-verse commentaries based on Talmudic, Midrashic, and Rabbinic sources; and an introduction that serves as a veritable course in Jewish thought, presenting the key ideas of the sacred text before the study begins. This fourth volume holds particular significance because it includes psalms that form a large part of our Siddur (prayer ritual). Psalms 90, 91, 100, and 105 are part of the Pesukei Dezimra; Psalms 92 through 99 are part of Kabbalat Shabbat; and Psalms 113 through 118 are the Hallel hymns, the majestic hymns of thanksgiving and praise sung during the holiday prayers.

"The Annotated Bible" Collection

French version of the famous American ArtScroll collection

Like all the books in the collection, this volume contains:

* the Hebrew text of the book of Psalms;

* its translation into French

*comments, verse by verse;

*an introduction which is a veritable course in Jewish thought, presenting the key ideas of the sacred text, produced by Rabbi Nosson Scherman;

The verse-by-verse commentaries are based on Talmudic, Midrashic, and Rabbinic sources.

The Book of Psalms holds a very special place in Jewish life. For generations, Jews have never felt alone with the Book of Psalms in their hands, a sure companion and unerring guide.

Many men have composed wonderful hymns to God, but their verses are limited to their personal experience.

David transcended these narrow limitations. His universal soul mingled and merged with that of all humankind, past, present, and future. He felt and understood the vast panorama of all human feelings in every situation. Every minute nuance, every subtle variation of human emotion is expressed in these astonishing psalms.
