One of the
most famous – if not the famous verse of scripture in Christendom is Psalm 23
which opens with the statement, “The Lord is my Shepherd…” This text has gained
so much popularity because of the intensity of the declarations which were
carefully constructed by the psalmist in his prayer. But in this article I am
much interested in the opening statement. I would however relate this scripture
to the fourteen year service of the patriarch Jacob for his desired bride –
Rachel.
