The theme of this great teaching Psalm is the way to fruitfulness and prosperity. It is written in the style of the book of Proverbs, placing before us the paths of the righteous and of the wicked. King Solomon wrote Psalm 1 while he was on a trip north to Lebanon. He saw a tree planted by a river bringing forth fruit, and broke forth into prophetic utterance. The Psalm which resulted could be
termed the Psalm of introduction to the Book of Psalms, as it defines in just six short verses the key to triumphant living in Christ.
