Bible Commentary on Psalms
Spurgeon's own commentary on every verse of the Psalms is extremely insightful, and by itself it would have been rich enough for posterity. But there's much more in The Treasury of David. You'll find a wealth of illuminating extracts and quotes from hundreds of commentators
- contemporaries of Spurgeon as well as the great Puritan expositors of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Preachers and teachers will appreciate the homiletical hints on almost every verse, concise sermon outlines, and provocative seed thoughts.
Of all Spurgeon's writings, the one that is his greatest works is "The Treasury of David", composed and polished over the span of nearly half his ministry. First published in weekly installments over a twenty-year span in the London Metropolitan Tabernacle's periodical, The Sword and the Trowel, completed sections were released volume by volume, until the seventh and final volume was released in 1885.
Within a decade more than 120,000 sets had been sold. The Treasury of David is a superb literary achievement. Eric Hayden, pastor of the Metropolitan Tabernacle a century after Spurgeon's ministry began there, calls this work "Spurgeon's magnum opus." Spurgeon's wife said that if Spurgeon had never written any other work, this would have been a permanent literary memorial.
Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-1892) was born in Essex, England. After preaching his first sermon at the age of 16, he became pastor of the church in Waterbeach at the age of 17. His most fruitful years of ministry were at the New Park Street and later the Metropolitan Tabernacle pulpit in London. Called the "Prince of Preachers," he had more than 1,900 sermons published prior to his death.

This is an absolute amaaaaaaazing study tool. It helps very vividly expound upon text, and it walks you through each scripture of that text. I have become a better child of God and a much better teacher of the word because of this Commentary.
It's a wonderful way to dig deep into the Psalms both for personal devotion and preparation of sermons and exhortations. The developer has done a good job with the app.
Excellent Interface for Spurgeon's Treasury of the Psalms. Easy to use and highlight. Wonderful for personal study and meditation on the Psalms.
It helps me much on my study. It's a great help for me in making my sermons... Thank you and God bless...

Great insights on the Psalms. Not sure how many are Spurgen's though.
Its very useful to understand psams nice app
It has helped me in diverse ways
This isn't just the text of the commentary. It has links to Scripture references within the commentary that pop up, and then can take you to the whole chapter. It also has settings for text size, serif or non, and line length (which I hadn't bothered to look at here), which was a pleasant surprise. It also has night mode, but I would love to see dark grey background with very light grey text. Black on white is just as hard to read as white on black. The free version has an ad on the bottom which shifts the text (would be good to fix that--needs a fixed size for the ads), so I bought the paid version (see Settings) because I like it so much. I would give it 4 1/2 stars, but I'll be generous here.
It would be nice to highlight each verse with more than one color
Great... God bless..I loved it
Thank you
Excellent tòol for the good message on the whole book of Psalm.
Thank u for giving this
Its okay.
You will love it
I have been using this for about three years and it's just hard to express in words what remarkable impact journeying through the Psalms has had on me, especially with the aid of this resource. God bless you. Psalm 2 was missing when I started. Not sure if this has been fixed. Also, Psalm 72 is incomplete. It stops at the beginning of verse 16. Psalm 79 as well; commentary stopped at verse 7.
