Psalms 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.

20 And they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that eateth grass.

21 They forgot God their Saviour, who had done great things in Egypt,

22 Wondrous works in the land of Ham, terrible things by the Red Sea.
