“For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light.”
Psalms 36:9 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 36:9
The metaphor shifts from eating (v. 8) to drinking from 'the fountain of life,' portraying God as the ultimate source of vitality. 'In thy light shall we see light' indicates that divine illumination enables true perception—without God's revelation, we remain in darkness, unable to discern reality. This verse is foundational to Reformed epistemology: all knowledge depends on God's self-disclosure. Jesus claims to be both 'the light of the world' (John 8:12) and 'the life' (John 14:6), fulfilling this psalm christologically.
