Proton threshold states in {sup 23}Mg are important for the astrophysically relevant proton capture reaction {sup 22}Na(p,{gamma}){sup 23}Mg. In the indirect determination of the resonance strength of the lowest states, which were not accessible by direct methods, some of the spin-parity-assignments remained experimentally uncertain. We have investigated these states with shell model, Coulomb displacement, and Thomas-Ehrman shift calculations. From the comparison of calculated and observed properties, we relate the lowest relevant resonance state at E{sub x}=7643 keV to an excited 3/2{sup +} state in accordance with a recent experimental determination by Jenkins et al. From this we deduce significantly improved values for the {sup 22}Na(p,{gamma}){sup 23}Mg reaction rate at stellar temperatures below T{sub 9}=0.1 K.
