📚 Historical Context
This psalm is attributed to David, who wrote it as a prayer for guidance and protection during a difficult time in his life. In ancient Hebrew culture, 'meekness' didn't mean weakness but rather a gentle strength and willingness to submit to God's authority. David understood that true wisdom comes from acknowledging our need for God's direction rather than relying solely on our own understanding.
