Psaume 106:21 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 106:21

They forgat God their Saviour
Not only forgat the works of God, ( Psalms 106:13 ) , but forgat God that did those mighty works; forgat that there was a God; or however forgat him that is the only true and living God, when they said of the molten image, "these are thy gods, O Israel"; and what aggravated their crime was, they forgot that God that had saved them in so wonderful a manner out of the hand of their enemies, for his own name's sake; and had led them safely through the Red sea as on dry land, and destroyed those that hated them.

Which had done great things in Egypt:
meaning the ten plagues on the Egyptians, and the deliverance of the Israelites from them.

Psaume 106:21 In-Context

19 Ils firent un veau en Horeb, Ils se prosternèrent devant une image de fonte,
20 Ils échangèrent leur gloire Contre la figure d'un boeuf qui mange l'herbe.
21 Ils oublièrent Dieu, leur sauveur, Qui avait fait de grandes choses en Egypte,
22 Des miracles dans le pays de Cham, Des prodiges sur la mer Rouge.
23 Et il parla de les exterminer; Mais Moïse, son élu, se tint à la brèche devant lui, Pour détourner sa fureur et l'empêcher de les détruire.
