Commentators agree this verse is a powerful declaration of God's supreme worth. Nothing in heaven, not even angels, and nothing on earth, not wealth or relationships, can satisfy the soul's deepest needs as God can. As Albert Barnes notes, even heaven would be incomplete without God. He is the believer's all-sufficient treasure and portion for eternity.
