In Songs of the Savior: The Person, Life and Work of Christ in All the Psalms, Ken Hanko offers a remarkable contribution to biblical theology and Christian worship. With exegetical care and theological depth, he demonstrates how the Psalter unfolds the person and work of Christ—revealing Him as both God and Man, our true Prophet, Priest, and King. From His incarnation and humiliation to His suffering, betrayal, crucifixion, death, resurrection, and exaltation, Hanko traces the rich Christology woven throughout Israel’s hymnbook. He also explores the types and foreshadowing of Christ that pervade the Psalms, showing how they prefigure the coming Redeemer and find their fulfillment in Him. This insightful work not only enhances our understanding of the Psalms as Messianic Scripture but also restores their rightful place as songs for the church today—teaching us to sing, pray, and worship with renewed appreciation for the gospel they proclaim.
