| Publisher Description: 2012 Reprint of 1960-1961 Edition. Two Volumes bound in one. Exact facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. This is a scholarly translation of Enarrationes in Psalmos, St. Augustine's lengthiest and possibly his most important exegetical work. The first volume covers Augustine's notes and commentaries on Psalms 1 through 29, the second volume covers psalms 30-37. Augustine's theme is the Church, less as on external institution than as the very locus and center of God and Christ. God is revealed and accessible to us only through Christ, Christ only through the Church. These volumes comprise part of the larger series "Ancient Christian Writers: The Works of the Fathers in Translation." |
