About this listen
Characteristically graceful and lucid, Lewis cautions us that the psalms were originally written as songs that should now be read in the spirit of lyric poetry rather than as doctrinal treatises or sermons. Drawing from daily life as well as the literary world, Lewis begins to reveal the mystery that often shrouds the psalms.

Love it!
This is really what I have been searching for. Quite funny in some parts too, which made me chuckled quite a lot. I enjoyed every minute of it. I actually started listening again from the beginning. Get it! It is worth it.

Beautiful, and simple
C.S. Lewis’ writing is for everyone.
Highlight for me was this quote, when talking about praising God:
“I think we delight to praise what we enjoy, because the praise not merely expresses but completes the enjoyment.”

Bonus Spiritual teaching
I so appreciate the way Audible provides some great free listening, from C.S.Lewis - gems of Scriptural understanding.
He was a man with top intelligence and education, yet with a childlike, simple faith, which is a wonderful combination.
Chapter 8, on nature is so topical, as regards the almost pagan attitude to nature of these modern times; especially with the over emphasis on climate change, recycling, conservation (my amplification); explaining the difference between ‘divinity’ or ‘deity’
In chapter 9 speaking of ‘praising God’ I want to add another part to the act of speaking and singing praise to God; to me this is like a spiritual warfare, where we are speaking God into the air around us, our lives, not exactly ‘making God manifest’, but there is that aspect to it. In which case ever giving praise is a blessing to ourselves and keeping the channel of Gods presence alive and open, like a cloud of blessing over our own lives.

Reflective
Would you listen to Reflections on the Psalms again? Why?
Yes. Lots to think about.
What didn’t you like about Ralph Cosham’s performance?
His voice comes across as very harsh, which makes the whole thing less easy to listen too.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No
Any additional comments?
Great book, lots of worthwhile stuff. Just a shame this reader isn't too my taste

Thought provoking
It took a little time to get used to the delivery by the reader but I was drawn more and more 8th it- definitely going to save in my library.

insightful
Got a true eureka moment when reading chapter 9 about how praise is the apointed consomation of joy

mental gymnastics
beautifully read .at the base is a cruel religion. Mr Lewis's rationalisation are clever but I found him unpersuasive
