Commentary on Psalms 59:8
God's laughter at the wicked demonstrates divine transcendence over human schemes. The Hebrew 'sachaq' (laugh/mock/scorn) appears in Psalm 2:4 describing God's response to nations' rebellion. 'Thou shalt have all the heathen in derision' reveals that from God's eternal perspective, human opposition is absurd, not threatening—a truth that emboldens believers facing persecution.
