Psalms 44:14 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 44:14

Thou makest us a byword among the Heathen
Among the Papists, as the Jews were among the Gentiles, ( Deuteronomy 28:37 ) ( Jeremiah 24:9 ) ; calling them schismatics, heretics, fanatics, and what not? a shaking of the head among the people;
by way of indignation, scorn, and contempt; see ( Psalms 22:7 ) ( 109:25 ) .

Psalms 44:14 In-Context

12 You sold your people at a discount - you made nothing on the sale.

13 You made people on the street, urchins, poke fun and call us names.

14 You made us a joke among the godless, a cheap joke among the rabble.

15 Every day I'm up against it, my nose rubbed in my shame -

16 Gossip and ridicule fill the air, people out to get me crowd the street.
