Commentary on Psalms 57:4
The imagery of dwelling 'among them that are set on fire' uses the metaphor of lions and beasts of prey with incendiary weapons. This hyperbolic language captures the intensity of opposition while demonstrating that God preserves His elect even in the furnace. The Hebrew 'lahat' (flame/burn) connects to Daniel's fiery furnace, showing God's presence in, not removal from, extremity.
