Description
Alec Motyer was a man whose love for God and His Word inspired others to enjoy studying the Bible, and especially the Old Testament. Isaiah by the Day and Psalms by the Day exemplify this passion. Motyer’s scholarly brilliance and devotional warmth have cemented these books as firm favourites in the hearts of many readers.
This beautiful cloth–bound box set contains both volumes from this esteemed Bible teacher. Moyter is a master at attending to the details and finding their precise place in the grand sweep of scripture’s redemptive narrative. Rich and full, yet concisely put.
Each of the 144 daily readings consists of a Scripture passage, a wealth of accompanying notes, and a devotional reflection. The text is set in its context, with clear references to other relevant passages. Motyer’s long experience as a linguist enabled him to translate Isaiah and the Psalms from Hebrew into English, bringing us as close to the original text as possible, and helping us perceive familiar passages anew. His rich analysis alongside these translations, aids the reader to delve deeper into the treasures on offer. For a richer understanding of the Psalms and Isaiah, Motyer’s guide is an indispensable resource.
Providing so much more than a mere devotional, Moyter shares his tools for digging into God’s word and extracting its treasures. Look over his shoulder and learn from his lifetime of devout scholarship, faithful teaching and godly wisdom.
Endorsements
This book is the dream combination: the Psalms presented as a daily devotional by the great Christian scholar … Everyone who picks up this book will find that they not only learn to read and understand the Psalms as Christian scripture, they may also find their prayer life changed in a profound and dramatic way.
Carl R. Trueman

What a wonderful resource! This is an invaluable study companion for anyone reading through the Psalms … very accessible and user friendly; no knowledge of Hebrew is necessary. I heartily recommend this for pastors, students and laity alike.
Seulgi L. Byun
Director of Postgraduate Studies, Oak Hill College, London
Part commentary, part word study, and part devotional summary/analysis, the author has brought together his earlier treatment of the Psalms in a repackaged format suitable for daily personal reading. Reflective, suggestive, informative, and inspiring, this book models the profound but subtle scholarship for which Motyer was well known.

… expository without being dry, devotional without being forced. As we get to look over his shoulder, we learn to read the Psalms better for ourselves … delicious combination–richly full, concisely put.
