The Blessedness of Brotherly Unity

The psalm declares how good and pleasant it is when brethren dwell together in unity. This unity is likened to precious ointment poured on Aaron's head, flowing down his beard and garments, and to the dew falling on Hermon and the mountains of Zion, upon which the Lord commands His blessing and everlasting life.

1Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!

2It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;

3As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.
