经文解释
Psalm 23:1 is not soft religious comfort. It is a confession that the Lord himself takes responsibility for the life of his sheep.
本章中的上下文
The rest of the psalm unfolds from this first claim. Provision, guidance, protection, and home with God all stand on the reality that the Lord is the shepherd.
People want the shepherd’s comfort without the shepherd’s rule. The verse gives neither apart from the other.
“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.

Presence matters more than scenery
打开
The psalm refuses to let the believer define God’s goodness only by green pastures. The same shepherd who provides also leads through the valley of the shadow of death, and the decisive comfort is not changed scenery but “thou art with me.”
