Commentary on Psalms 36:7

The exclamation 'How excellent!' (Hebrew 'yaqar,' precious, rare, valuable) expresses wonder at God's lovingkindness. The imagery 'shadow of thy wings' evokes both the cherubim's wings over the mercy seat (Exodus 25:20) and a mother bird protecting young (Psalm 91:4, Matthew 23:37). Trusting 'under' these wings indicates finding refuge in God's protective presence. This intimate imagery contrasts sharply with the wicked's autonomy (vv. 1-4), showing that security comes from dependence on God, not independence from Him.
