[ Read](/kjv/psalms/133)[ Commentary](/study/psalms/133)[ Interlinear](/interlinear/psalms/133) Audio

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

 2 *It 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;

 3 As 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.

## Commentary

 To verse 1
 
[Psalms 133:0](/kjv/psalms/133/0). 

*The benefit of the communion of saints.* 

A Song of Degrees of David. 

*Title.*לדוד המעלות שׁיר *Shiir hammangaloth ledavid.*] This psalm is thought to have been written by David upon the agreement of the other tribes, with that of Judah, after Absalom's rebellion. It was very fitly used after the captivity, when the remainder of the tribes, formerly separated under Rehoboam, united themselves with the tribe of Judah; and quietly lived under the same common government. Bishop Patrick says, it was as fitly used by the first Christians, to express their joy for the blessed union of Jews and Gentiles; and may now serve the uses of all Christian societies, whose happiness consists in holy peace and concord. 

***[Psalms 133:1](/kjv/psalms/133/1)*****.*****Behold, how good,*****&c.—** Mr. Fenwick reads it, *Behold, how sweet and good it is,*&c.—Ver. 2. Sweet *as that precious ointment,*&c.—Ver. 3. Refreshing *as that Hermon dew,*&c.
