Christ and the Psalms | Christopher Ash

Ryley Heppner Podcast

I had the wonderful privilege today of getting to speak with, author and biblical scholar Christopher Ash. Ash has most recently released through Crossway a four volume commentary called The Psalms: A Christ Centred Commentary, which was the topic of our conversation today. We talked about how to find Christ in the Psalms, how to read the Psalms of vengeance, how important the Psalms are to the church, and many more things to do with the beauty and intricacy of the Psalms
I hope you enjoy, are blessed, are challenged, and are taken deeper into knowing Jesus through the Psalms! I also hope you’ll pick up Christopher's commentary, even if you just start with volume one. You will not look at and read the Psalms the same again.
