There is a possibility that David wrote this psalm as a boy while he was tending his flock‚ since he spent many lonely hours in the fields. It is hard to understand how a young boy could

The fact that the passage refers to God as the “God of Jacob” twice shows the importance of Jacob’s role in the Bible. In fact‚ Jacob has a dream in which he “saw a ladder reaching to heaven‚ with angels ascending and descending on it‚ and heard the Lord speaking

    With all the Psalms that David wrote‚ Psalm 23 stands out to me the most. It’s a really short one‚ but I like how it projects a lot of David’s heart for the Lord. As I read it over and over‚ I can see and feel David’s heart-felt worship for the Lord. What I really like in this Psalm is that David shows us complete fullness in God as he worships Him. He knows there isn’t anything else that could bring him complete satisfaction‚ joy‚ security‚ and peace. I like this Psalm most out of all the other
