The Psalms are the sacred Hebrew poems and songs that have comforted and encouraged God’s people for centuries. Recited in both public worship and cried out in the most private, personal prayers, these ancient verses are a rich expression of our heart and soul and the inspiration for praise and worship of our God.

It is this rich tradition that is celebrated in this timeless book, Holy Songs of Israel, through beautiful four-color imagery, teachings, and devotional reflections tied to 30 different Psalms that are still used today in Jewish worship and liturgy. Also included is a CD featuring Rabbi Eckstein and his daughter, Talia, as they perform traditional worship songs based on the Psalms.
