The verses around Psalms 133:1.
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.
Verse explanation
The opening exclamation sums up the whole theme of the psalm: how good and pleasant it is to live in unity among brothers, an idea the next two verses will illustrate with images of oil and dew.
