| Summary | "An Exposition of the Last Psalme" by John Boys is a theological publication delivered as a sermon preached at Pavaes Crosse on the fifth of November, 1613, and later printed in 1615. It fits within the genre of religious discourse, specifically focusing on biblical interpretation and apologetics. The time period of its composition corresponds with the early 17th century, a time characterized by significant religious and political conflict in England following the English Reformation. The book primarily centers on an exposition of Psalm 150, extolling the acts of God and advocating for the proper praise of His holiness, especially in the context of commemorating deliverance from the Gunpowder Plot. In this work, Boys articulates the importance of praising God using various means, such as music and public worship, while also reflecting on the contributions and experiences of saints. He emphasizes the nature of God as holy and deserving of praise for both creation and redemption. Through the sermon, Boys critiques the Roman Catholic practices that, in his view, misplace the honor due to saints instead of God. He powerfully argues for the legitimacy of church festivals and holy days as occasions meant to unite believers in gratitude and worship, particularly highlighting the national significance of November 5th as a day of thanksgiving for deliverance from the Gunpowder Plot. Boys calls upon the faithful to express their devotion with fervent and heartfelt praise, encapsulating a vivid portrayal of the divine holiness and the necessity of worship in communal settings.
