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 never turned away. Our feet never left your path.

19 Yet, you crushed us in a place for jackals and covered us with the shadow of death.

20 If we forgot the name of our God or stretched out our hands to pray to another god,

21 wouldn't God find out, since he knows the secrets in our hearts?

22 Indeed, we are being killed all day long because of you. We are thought of as sheep to be slaughtered.
