The Symbolism of the Psalms, Vol. 1: A Spiritual Commentary - Paperback

by Theodore D. Webber (Author)

The Spiritual Symbolism of the Psalms is a comprehensive commentary revealing the hidden spiritual meaning of the Psalms to make each Psalm directly applicable to one's life. The interpretation is based on symbolism and allegory that is universal to all of scripture, which was shown in waking visions to the 18th century scientist Emanuel Swedenborg. This work demonstrates that the Psalms are centered on the Lord and His spiritual kingdom and the celebration and victory over evil. The wars of David in the Psalms describe the spiritual temptations experienced by Jesus in resisting the power of hell to redeem humanity, and these spiritual concepts can be applied personally to one's own spiritual development.
