Blessings from Christ, Our Head
Commentators explain that the 'blessings on the head of the righteous' are more than just worldly success. They are the spiritual, covenant blessings of God—like justification, peace, and adoption—that flow from Christ, who is the head of the church. These blessings are visible, secure, and come from above, crowning the believer with God's favor.
