Psalms 44:11 - Ellicott's Commentary On The Whole Bible

Bible Comments

Like sheep. — The image of the sheep appointed for the slaughter; and unable to resist, recalls Isaiah 53:6-7, but does not necessarily connect the Psalm with the exile period, since it was a figure likely to suggest itself in every time of helpless peril.

Psalms 44:11

11 Thou hast given us like sheep appointed for meat; and hast scattered us among the heathen.
