About this ebook

Spurgeon called this work The Treasury of David, and it truly is a treasure that is filled with jewels, gems, and nuggets of gold from the Book of Psalms. In many ways, this is Spurgeon’s Magnum Opus. His wife, Susannah, said that if her husband had never written any other work, his writings on the Psalms would have become a permanent literary memorial to him. This is the second volume in a six–book series. Senior Editor Beverlee Chadwick has sensitively updated and revised this Pure Gold Classic for the modern reader. As you will see, Spurgeon delighted in his study of the Psalms, and it was his desire that readers would search the Psalms further for themselves. 

About the author

 Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834–1892), the "Prince of Preachers," preached his first sermon at age sixteen and became a pastor at age eighteen. Spurgeon drew large crowds and built the Metropolitan Tabernacle in London in 1861 to accommodate them. He published over two thousand sermons; his inspiring and challenging messages comprise the largest collection of work by a single author. Spurgeon preached to an estimated ten million people during his lifetime, including notables such as the prime minister of England, members of the royal family, and Florence Nightingale. He appealed constantly to his hearers to move on in the Christian faith, to allow the Lord to minister to them individually, and to be used of God to win the lost to Christ. In addition to his powerful preaching, Spurgeon founded and supported charitable outreaches, including educational institutions. His pastors' college, which is still in existence today, taught nearly nine hundred students in Spurgeon's time. He also founded the famous Stockwell Orphanage.
