Psalm 1:1–3, “Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.”
The book of Psalms is the classic example of Hebrew poetry. This form of poetry is at least as well developed as any other form of poetry from any language today. One of the main features of this kind of poetry is called “parallelism”, that is, repetition. The book of the Psalms begins with a good example of this. The first three lines contain a theme repeated and building to a crescendo. It starts with a man walking by the wrong place, then he stops to have a look and finally he sits and joins in. This man gives counter example to the true way to follow God. If a person loves the Lord then he will follow the instructions that the Lord gave to Joshua when he first began to lead Israel. (Josh 1: 8, 9) If a person fills his mind with the Lord’s ways, as written in the book of the Law, then that person will be fruitful and spiritually successful in his life. As the Lord is the Creator then He knows what is best for us, particularly for our minds. If we fill our minds with the information that it was created to enjoy then we will reach our full potential as a person before the Lord and actively contribute to our local community.
