In this illuminating commentary on Psalm 119, David VanDrunen offers a fresh perspective on the Bible’s longest chapter, exploring its profound relevance for Christians today. Through careful exposition of the psalm’s twenty–two stanzas, VanDrunen reveals how this ancient text speaks to contemporary believers who, like the psalmist, live as ‘sojourners’ in a world that is not their true home.

- Students of Scripture
- Small group studies
- Personal devotional reading
- Anyone seeking to understand how God’s word sustains his people through times of trial

This volume serves as a living testimony to the power of God’s Word, demonstrating how it sustains and strengthens Christians who, like exiles, live in a world captive to sin and swept away by waves of iniquity. Professor VanDrunen transcends mere academic pursuits, offering scholarly depth, spiritual insight, and the essence of experiential preaching to equip ministers of the Word in both their pastoral ministry and daily lives.
