Psalm 1 is a wisdom Psalm. This chapter presents a clear contrast between the way of the righteous (vv 1-2) and the way of the wicked (vv 4-6). We are not given the author nor the purpose of this Psalm but it was probably written late in Israel's history. This chapter serves as the "gatekeeper" to this beloved book and is great wisdom for the child of God. The chapter highlights the distinctions of character and the different destinies of the righteous and the wicked.
