Psalms 44:7 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 44:7

But thou hast saved us from our enemies
Spiritual ones, and not we ourselves; and therefore will not trust in ourselves, nor in anything of ours, but in the Lord, and give him the glory of salvation; and hast put them to shame that hated us;
the men of the world, the seed of the serpent, and the serpent himself, when his works were destroyed, and his principalities and powers spoiled by Christ upon the cross; hence the following boasting of the Lord, and glorying in him.

Psalms 44:7 In-Context

5 Through you, will we push down our adversaries. Through your name, will we tread them under who rise up against us.

6 For I will not trust in my bow, Neither shall my sword save me.

7 But you have saved us from our adversaries, And have put them to shame who hate us.

8 In God have we made our boast all day long, We will give thanks to your name forever. Selah.

9 But now you rejected us, and brought us to dishonor, And don't go out with our armies.
