About F.B. Meyer
Frederick Brotherton Meyer (1847–1929). Baptist pastor, Bible conference speaker and writer. Born in London, Meyer was convinced from his childhood that he would be a preacher.
While at Priory Street Church in 1873, Meyer befriended Dwight L. Moody and Ira D. Sankey, who had arrived in England to minister but had found that the two men who had invited them had died. Invited to York, Moody found Meyer very helpful in getting his campaign started. This friendship resulted in Moody inviting Meyer to America in 1891, the first of twelve trips. He spoke at the East Northfield Summer Conference for two weeks and proved to be so popular that he was asked to give post-conference addresses. In one meeting at Northfield, J. Wilbur Chapman was touched by Meyer’s preaching and testified later to a life-changing commitment made there.
Prior to his coming to the U.S., his written works had received much attention. His biographies of Bible characters gained great popularity, as did his expositional and devotional works.
About this Commentary
Bible Readings on the Psalms is also called Gems of the Psalms. This chapter by chapter guide through the Psalms is a treasure hunt packed with golden nuggets of rich inspiration and truth. Almost every verse has a comment and is intended to be a general guide to the Psalms, including cross references and a comparison between Psalms and other parts of the Bible. F.B. Meyer's analysis is based off of the text from the Authorized Version (KJV) and the Revised Version.
This commentary differs from other versions available online because it's been reformatted for ease of reading. In that sense, the formatting differs slightly from the original book.
