What are the Rod and staff in Psalm 23?
Psalm 23 is a beautiful analogy that compares a Christian's relationship with God to that of a sheep and its shepherd. The "rod" or "staff" was carried by the shepherd to serve as tool of protection and guidance for the flock. The rod was used to fight of predators and the staff was used to point wandering sheep in the right direction or to pull straying sheep back into the fold. These symbols can be applied to the life of a Christian when considering God's protection and correction in our lives. The verse states "your rod and your staff, they comfort me." We should find comfort in the fact that our shepherd (God) protects us from evil with a rod. It may be more difficult to find comfort in the fact that God corrects us, but if you consider that the shepherd is much smarter than the sheep (and God knows more than you will ever know) and knows what dangers lie around the corner, then we should be able to take comfort in the fact that our Shepherd guides us with a staff. A great book that discusses this passage of scripture further is: A Shepherd Looks at Psalm 23 by W. Phillip Keller

What does rod and staff mean?
As with most things of pastoral origin, our modern life is taking us away from familiarity with their use. The Shepherds Rod was a stick shaped like a club with a smooth round head (the modern analogy would be a scepter) it was used a a weapon to defend the flock from predators, to throw at sheep that were going towards danger, and to examine sheep as they came in at night (to part the fleece to look for parasites) The Shepherds Staff (or Crook) was a tall pole with a curved hook on one end that the shepherd would use the pole as a walking stick and extend the straight end to guide and drive sheep when needed and the hook to catch the neck of a sheep and bring it towards him. They were the ubiquitous tools of the shepherd and this shepherding metaphor is used extensively in the bible and now as symbols of care and authority.
