Even In Deep Darkness The Lord Comforts Me (Psalm 23, Part 5) - James Jennings

And remember, this is metaphoric/symbolic/illustrative/figurative language—we are the sheep in this analogy, and the LORD God is the Shepherd. So in order to rightly understand Psalm 23:4 we have to precisely determine what the valley of the shadow of death is referring to in this metaphor. And how did the sheep even get into the valley?<br />
<br />
And what is the purpose of the rod and staff — what did the Shepherd use these tools for? And then how does their use on a sheep carry over and what does it represent on how the Lord would use them to provide us with comfort?<br />
