"The work of a brilliant and effective teacher. He writes with
real power and insight."--_Saturday Review._
"Dr. Maclaren has evidently mastered his subject with the aid of
the best authorities, and has put the results of his studies
before his readers in a most attractive form, and if we add that
this commentary really helps to the better understanding of the
Psalms, that, far from degrading, it vivifies and illuminates
these sublime stories, and that it is written in a charming style,
very seldom falling below the dignity of the subject, we believe
we only give it the praise which is its due."--_Scotsman._
"It is scholarly, honest, thoughtful, and suggestive."--_Daily
Chronicle._
"Striking thoughts, strongly expressed, are to be found on every
page."--_Manchester Guardian._
"There is certainly room for the work which Dr. Maclaren does
here--largely because it is he who does it. The book is most
heartily to be commended. Preachers will find it to be a mine of
wealth, and to Christians of all kinds it may serve as a manual of
devotion."--_Christian World._
"Dr. Maclaren's charming pages furnish a most fruitful field of
study, alike for those whose chief aim is personal edification,
and for those who are in quest of suggestions in the line of
ministerial service. Altogether a most valuable book."--_United
Presbyterian Magazine._
"Most heartily do we welcome this new volume of Dr. Maclaren's
'Exposition of the Psalms.' It fully sustains the traditions of
insight, scholarly instinct, and spiritual force which gather
around that beloved name. Notwithstanding the rich treasures of
devout literature which the Psalter has called forth, there is a
special niche for this book, and it makes a distinct advance in
tone and method upon all other commentaries on the Psalms. We
greatly err if this does not prove the most popular and useful
commentary in the English language, both among preachers and the
commonality of Christ's Church."--_Evangelical Magazine._
