Theological / Devotional

Shall flourish. See Ps. 1:3; Ps. 52:8; Hosea 14:5, 6.

Like the palm tree. The palm was celebrated for its ability to remain green through winter and summer alike (see S. of Sol. 7:8; Jer. 10:5). Note the contrast with vs. 7, 9, 11.

Like a cedar. See Ps. 29:5 ; 104:16, 17.
