גַּם בְּמַדָּעֲךָ מֶלֶךְ. אֲפִילּוּ בְמַחְשְׁבוֹתֶיךָ, בְּלֹא דִבּוּר. "גַּם" אֲפִילוּ. Even in your thoughts [do not curse] the king. Even in your thoughts, without speech. “גַּם” means “even.”
מֶלֶךְ אַל תְּקַלֵּל. אַל תַּרְגִּיז לְמַלְכּוֹ שֶׁל עוֹלָם. דָּבָר אַחֵר: כְּמַשְׁמָעוֹ, מֶלֶךְ בָּשָׂר וָדָם: Do not curse the king. Do not provoke the King of the Universe. Another explanation: According to its apparent meaning, this is a mortal king.
עוֹף הַשָּׁמַיִם. נְשָׁמָה הַנְּתוּנָה בְךָ, שֶׁסּוֹפָה לָעוּף עַל הַשָּׁמָיִם: A bird of the skies. The soul, which is placed within you, which will ultimately fly up to the heaven.
וּבַעַל כְּנָפַיִם. מַלְאָךְ הַמְלַוֶּה אוֹתְךָ, כְּעִנְיָן שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר: "כִּי מַלְאָכָיו יְצַוֶּה לָךְ", וּלְפִי מַשְׁמָעוֹ, הָעוֹבְרִים וְהַשָּׁבִים. יֵשׁ לְךָ לִדְאֹג מִכָּל בִּרְיָה, שֶׁמָּא יֵשׁ שׁוֹמְעִין וְיַגִּידוּ לַאֲחֵרִים: And that which has wings. The angel who escorts you, as the matter is stated, “For He will command His angels on your behalf,”34Tehillim 91:11. and according to its apparent meaning, “those who go back and forth;” [i.e.,] you should worry about every person, perhaps there are listeners, who will tell [the matter] to others.35The Gemara in Maseches Bava Basra 4a states, that when Bava the son of Butta met with Hordos he applied this verse.
