This set is in two volumes, though there are three volume sets also. This is still the best commentary on the Psalms ever written. Every preacher planning to deal with the Psalms needs this set. Electronic versions are available, though I have not found them as useful as the actual books. ( )

Spurgeon, C.H., The Treasury of David, 3 volumes (Peabody, MA: Hendrickson Publishers).
"The most important and practical work of the ages on the Psalter." -- Dr. Philip Schaff
"Spurgeon's own exposition appears under each verse; after that you'll find `explanatory notes and quaint sayings' (illuminating quotes from Spurgeon's contemporaries as well as from the great Puritan expositors of the 17th and 18th centuries). Each Psalm closes with a short section of `Hints to Preachers'." -- CBD
Recommended for daily devotions.

These commentaries are pure vintage Spurgeon ... yet they have a lovely extra! He has compiled lists upon lists of fantastic quotes from the Puritans demonstrating yet again his profound reading. ( )

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0917006259, Hardcover)

Charles Haddon Spurgeon, the "Prince of Preachers," composed and polished The Treasury of David over the span of nearly half his ministry. This incomparable commentary and omnibus on the Psalms has been prized by Christians ever since.

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. Useful bibliographies and an index of authors offer more practical help.

Whether you're teaching on the Psalms, studying them for personal devotions, or simply intrigued by the writings of Spurgeon, you'll enjoy this splendid classic.
