EXPLANATION - This will be an ongoing Psalms project and will consist primarily of the superlative work the Treasury of David by Charles Haddon Spurgeon set in a verse by verse format so that each verse can be linked separately. This will be supplemented with comments on individual verses, Hebrew word studies, Greek word studies from the Septuagint and cross references from the prodigious Treasury of Scripture knowledge (TSK)

Introduction - This page will feature psalms linked to songs that use the words of the psalm. Years ago I had a CD (some of you may not know what a CD is!) that was a compilation of psalms associated with songs and it was absolutely wonderful. Sadly I lost the CD and have never found anything quite like it, so I decided to do my own version. This will be an ongoing project and there will be no attempt to find songs matching every psalm. If you know of some songs that use the words of a specific psalm, please let me know. Thank you.
