Psalms 133
A short psalm celebrating unity among God's people.
Psalm 133 opens with a memorable exclamation, "how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity," a line captured fully in Psalms 133:1. It follows the covenant promises of Psalms 132 with a simple picture of harmony among God's people.
Lo! how good and how delightful, for brethren, to dwell together even as one.
Like the precious oil upon the head, descending upon the beard; the beard of Aaron,—which descended unto the opening of his robe:
Like the dew of Hermon, which descended upon the mountains of Zion,—for, there, did Yahweh command the blessing, Life, unto times age-abiding?
