Psalms 44:20 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 44:20

If we have forgotten the name of our God
As antichrist, and the antichristian party did in those times, ( Daniel 11:36 Daniel 11:37 ) ;

or stretched out our hands to a strange god;
as not to any of the Heathen deities under the Pagan persecutions, so not to any images of gold, silver, brass, and wood, under the Papal tyranny; not to the Virgin Mary, nor to angels and saints departed; nor to the breaden God in the mass, never heard of before; see ( Daniel 11:38 Daniel 11:39 ) ( Revelation 9:21 ) .

Psalms 44:20 In-Context

18 Our hearts haven't turned away from you, and we haven't stopped following you.

19 But you crushed us in this place where wild dogs live, and you covered us with deep darkness.

20 If we had forgotten our God or lifted our hands in prayer to foreign gods,

21 God would have known, because he knows what is in our hearts.

22 But for you we are in danger of death all the time. People think we are worth no more than sheep to be killed.
