Psalms 44:16 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 44:16

For the voice, of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth
That is, antichrist, to whom a mouth speaking blasphemies has been given, and which he has opened in blasphemy against God, attributing that to himself which belongs to God; blaspheming his name, his tabernacle, and them that well in heaven; see ( Revelation 13:5 Revelation 13:6 ) ( 2 Thessalonians 2:4 ) ; by reason of the enemy and avenger;
which are very proper characters of antichrist, who is the enemy of Christ and of his people, and breathes out vengeance against them; as the same titles are also given to the Scribes and Pharisees, the implacable enemies of Christ, ( Psalms 8:2 ) .

Psalms 44:16 In-Context

14 You have made us a byword among the nations, a laughingstock among the peoples.

15 All day long my disgrace is before me, and shame has covered my face,

16 at the voice of the scorner and reviler, because of the enemy, bent on revenge.

17 All this has come upon us, though we have not forgotten You or betrayed Your covenant.

18 Our hearts have not turned back; our steps have not strayed from Your path.
