Definition: The word "too good" is a phrase that's often used in Bible quotes or conversations to express positivity about something, but without necessarily expressing an absolute goodness or perfection. This phrase has its origins in the Bible, specifically found in Deuteronomy 8:5-6, where God says, "For you will say to me, 'You are too good for us.'" The literal translation of this verse is "for you have said, 'you are too good for us,' and I will certainly be very pleased when we meet again."
