To fly high / soar aloft
To fly at great height. Metaphorically: to reach a high status (in the source, the literal meaning is a bar or rod that closes and connects. The central meaning is intermediate).
("For man is born of toil, and the sons of Resheph are lifted up by the wing" - Job 5:7, and so: "After the flight of the eagle and the swift over the waters/ the birds of the house remain - they are those whom the wing will not lift up" - Jonathan/ The birds of the house)
