A Sweet Exposition on Psalm 23: with also An Exhortation to the Carrying of Christ's Cross

This is Myles Coverdale's 1537 treatise, translated from Martin Luther early in the English Reformation. Poetic and profound, it expounds Psalm 23 in accordance with now-forgotten but centuries-old understanding that this psalm was written about the word of God.
Coverdale wrote, "In this psalm doth David and every Christian heart give thanks and praise unto God for his most principal benefit, namely, for the preaching of his dear and holy word.... This same noble treasure doth holy David praise and extol marvellous excellently, with goodly, sweet, fair, and pure words ... [he] calleth it goodly pleasant green grass, fresh water, the right way, a staff, a sheep-hook, a table, balm, or pleasant oil, and a cup that is always full."
Baruch House is now giving this work back to the world in modern spelling, to recover the traditional interpretation of Psalm 23. The Appendix by R. M. Davis shows when and how this interpretation was lost through Bible revision and new expositions. It also shows how teaching about God's word has been lost in two New Testament verses through Bible revisions since the Reformation.
Included also is Coverdale's Exhortation to the Carrying of Christ's Cross. He wrote it shortly after Queen Mary ascended the throne in England, to strengthen believers against her persecutions. It is timely today, where Christianity is coming under attack.
