The first brothers: Cain and Abel (Genesis 4)
Aaron ordained as High Priest by Moses (Leviticus 8)
Tiberias looking towards Hermon after David Roberts.

PSALM 133 C.M.

1 Behold, how good a thing it is,
and how becoming well,
Together such as brethren are
in unity to dwell!

2 Like precious ointment on the head,
that down the beard did flow,
Ev’n Aaron’s beard, and to the skirts
did of his garments go.

3 As Hermon’s dew, the dew that doth
on Zion hills descend:
For there the blessing GOD commands,
life that shall never end.
