Psalm 15: Who May Worship?

Psalms 15, attributed to David, asks about who is worthy of worshiping in the Lord's sanctuary and entering His holy presence. The text then provides a list of characteristics defining such individuals, including living blameless lives, speaking truth, and refusing to gossip or harm neighbors. Those who are honorable in their dealings, keep promises, and do not exploit others financially or through bribery are deemed worthy. Essentially, the psalm outlines the moral and ethical conduct expected of those seeking a close relationship with God.
