Need index on 2 column table?

I am used to SQL server which has clustered and non-clustered indexes.
If I have a 2 column table in Oracle and am doing all my lookups using
the first column, will an index benefit?  As I understand it, it will
because Oracle does not have a clustered option and the table data
won't be sorted.
