Explicação do versículo
Psalm 23:1 is not soft religious comfort. It is a confession that the Lord himself takes responsibility for the life of his sheep.
Contexto no capítulo

“I shall not want” is not a promise of luxury. It is a confession that under the shepherd’s care nothing essential will finally be withheld.
Jesus takes the shepherd title onto himself and gives Psalm 23 explicit Christ-centered force.
God promises to shepherd his scattered flock himself, deepening the confidence of Psalm 23.
