Guiding Questions: Psalms 133

Exploring Judaism

This is part of the Tanakh Yomi Project.

What virtue, relationship is praise in this Psalm (Psalms 133:1)?
Is it appropriate, then, that this has become (and continues to be) a well known song chanted on many occasions?
To what are friendship and good relationships compared (Psalms 133:2)?
What would be meant by the closing phrase “everlasting life” — immortality or perpetual dwelling in Zion — or both?
