Robert Bolton on the Treasury of David

[Reformed Covenanter]

OF all other parts of the holy Bible, this Book of the Psalms, (penned for the most part by David, the sweet Singer of Israel, and a man after God’s own heart) is stuffed and filled with greatest plenty and variety of precious Lessons and instructions unto eternal life. The choice and flower of all things profitable and comfortable for the right course of a Christian life, is therein briefly contained, and very movingly and feelingly expressed.

In them we may be acquainted with the Majesty and Mysteries of God, with the Sufferings of Christ, with unfeigned Repentance, unwearied Patience, spiritual Wisdom, and wonderful Courage of the godly man, and true Christian. In them we may behold the terrors of Wrath, and the anguishes of an afflicted Conscience, the comforts of Grace, and great Deliverances, the wonderful works of Providence over this World, and the promised joys of that World which is to come. In a word, all good necessarily to be either known or done, or had, is plentifully, as out of a rich Treasury, revealed and offered unto us in these heavenly Songs of David.
