About Psalms: book summary and outline →

1Look! How good and how pleasant it is when brothers live together!
2It is like fine oil poured on the head which flows down the beard – Aaron’s beard, and then flows down his garments.
3It is like the dew of Hermon, which flows down upon the hills of Zion. Indeed that is where the Lord has decreed a blessing will be available – eternal life.
