Commentary on Psalms 14:4
This rhetorical question exposes the wicked's moral insensitivity—they 'eat up' God's people like bread (thoughtlessly, habitually) and do not call upon God. The Hebrew 'akal' (eat/devour) suggests consuming the poor as casually as one eats food. The parallel between devouring people and not calling on God reveals that prayerlessness and oppression are connected—those who ignore God inevitably harm people.
