133:3 The dew represents the richness of divine blessings; in Jerusalem, it comes from moist winds from the Mediterranean Sea. Mount Hermon, which is capped with snow, is a place of abundant moisture. • A blessing is God’s life-giving power, a guarantee of his provision and protection (5:12; 41:2), secured by his presence (21:6; 67:1). Even the other nations will ultimately be blessed (Pss 67; 72:17). Zion is the focal point of God’s blessing (134:3; 147:13). • God gives life everlasting to human beings.
