📚 Historical Context
This psalm was written by David when he pretended to be insane before King Abimelech to escape danger. The verse speaks of God's protective care over the righteous. Interestingly, this verse was later seen as prophetic of Jesus' crucifixion, where His bones remained unbroken unlike the typical practice of breaking legs to hasten death.
