This volume goes into the dark.
It does not stay there.

Volume 5 of Psalms Made Clear contains the saddest psalm in the entire Bible. Its last word, in Hebrew, is “darkness.” It also contains the oldest psalm in the Bible, written by Moses centuries before David was born. And it ends with the simplest, brightest burst of praise in the entire Psalter: “Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth.” Between the darkness and the joy is one of the most breathtaking pivots in all of Scripture, and H.K. Holland walks you through every step of it.

These twenty psalms include the worship leader whose prayer ends without an answer, the broken covenant that seems to contradict everything God promised, the man who has been singing since before the mountains existed, the psalm Satan tried to quote at Jesus in the wilderness, and ten consecutive shouts of “The LORD reigns” that have fuelled Christian worship for three thousand years. This is the volume that proves the Psalter is not a collection of similar poems. It is a journey, and this stretch of the road goes through a valley before it climbs to the summit.

If you have ever wondered whether God is still on the throne when everything around you says otherwise, these twenty psalms are your answer. The darkness is real. So is the morning.

Twenty psalms.
The darkest night in the Psalter.
And the dawn that follows it.
