The Psalms Translated And Explained by Joseph Addison Alexander is a 19th-century scholarly edition of the Book of Psalms that presents a verse-by-verse exegesis grounded in direct study of the Hebrew text. The work combines a literal, Hebrew-facing translation with extensive explanatory notes and emphasizes philology, syntax, and the original poetic devices (such as parallelism and occasional acrostics) alongside theological interpretation. It treats the Psalms as liturgical poetry rooted in Israel’s covenant faithfulness, discusses authorship (Davidic origins, with the Sons of Korah in superscriptions), and explores literary structure, historical setting, and Christological readings, especially in the Messianic expectations of passages like Psalm 45. The commentary engages themes of suffering and deliverance, divine sovereignty, and righteousness, and consistently asks how true worship must align outward acts with inward obedience. The volume reflects a broader plan for a five-book Psalter, emphasizes intertextual links, and envisions practical devotional use, aiming to assist ministers and educated readers in forming doctrinal or pastoral reflection on God’s justice, mercy, and the coming kingdom.
