Psalm by psalm, Luther sets out the subject and the lesson of each of the hundred and fifty, showing where it prophesies Christ, consoles the afflicted, teaches prayer or warns against hollow religion. His preface to the Psalter and an introductory admonition open the book, which Henry Cole translated for English readers who wanted Luther’s devotional voice rather than his polemics.
