Thomas Manton praised the Psalmist for his succinctness, for avoiding obscurity, and for “advancing practical holiness.”

 Psalm 119, for Manton, captures these attributes better than perhaps any other. Throughout his lifetime, he wrote more than 100 sermons on Psalm 119. This volume—the first of three on Psalm 119—contains the first 52 sermons which explore law, grace, and the Word of God.
