(Excerpted from the KJV Life in the Spirit Study Bible)
The Book of Psalms is the Bible’s longest book. No other Bible book so totally expresses the full range of human emotions and needs in relation to God and human life. About half of the Psalms involve prayers of faith in times of adversity.
The Book of Psalms, as Spirit-inspired prayers and praises, were written, generally speaking, to express the deep inner emotions of the human heart in relation to God. Many were written as prayers to God, expressing trust, love, adoration, thanksgiving, praise, and a longing for close fellowship. Others were written to express discouragement, deep distress, fear, anxiety, humiliation, a cry for deliverance, healing, or vindication. Others were written as songs expressing praise, thanksgiving, and adoration for who God is and for the great things He has done. Some psalms contain important Messianic sections that were fulfilled in their fullest meaning in Jesus Christ.
The Psalms cover a great breadth of topics, including revelation about God, creation, humankind, salvation, sin and evil, justice and righteousness, worship and praise, prayer and judgement. Within the Psalms, God is viewed in a rich variety of ways - as a fortress,rock, shield, shepherd, victor, creator, ruler, judge, redeemer, sustainer, healer and avenger. He expresses love, anger and compassion. He is everywhere present, all-knowing and almighty. God’s people are also described in various ways: as the apple of His eye, sheep, saints, the upright and the righteous whom He has brought out of the horrible pit, set their feet on a rock, and put a new song in their mouths. God directs their steps, satisfies their spiritual longings, forgives all their sins, heals all their diseases and provides for them an eternal dwelling.
Of the 150 psalms, 73 are ascribed to King David, 12 to Asaph (a musically and prophetically gifted Levite), 10 to the sons of Korah (a musically gifted family, two to Solomon, one to Heman, one to Ethan and one to Moses. The final compilation of the Book of Psalms most likely occurred during the time of Ezra and Nehemiah (450-400 BC). There are 186 quotations from the Psalms in the New Testament, far more than from any other Old Testament book.
