Excerpt from A Plain Commentary on the Book of Psalms, (the Prayer-Book Version, ) Chiefly Founded on the Fathers, Vol. 2: Containing Psalms 73-150 Iris, of course, clear that the meaning which all who read the Psalms, as well as other portions of Holy Scriptures, have first to look to, is that of the words taken in their plain and literal sense. We certainly can make no great progress in the study of God's Word until we have understood its Literal meaning. In the historical books this is generally very plain; but in the poetical and prophetical por tions of the Bible it is much more difficult to dis cover it, because the writers intended that it should be so. It was one of the great points of ancient learning, as it is of modem. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
