Psalm 133:1-3 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brothers to dwell together in unity!… The idea of unity does not demand the monotony of similarity, but unity in variety. Not the oneness of a trellis that supports the vine, or a pile of trellises, but of the plant which, with tendrils, leaf, and fruit, rears aloft in the summer air. Not the oneness of a stone or a pile of stones, but of a palace in which so many different materials and contrivances combine to shelter human life. Not the oneness of a child, but of a family of children who differ in age, character, and temperament, and chosen pursuits in life, bug are one in love and tender sympathy. (R. Venting.)
