Psalms 44:1-3 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

It is one of the best and strongest of all arguments, when pleading for the renewals of divine love, to put the Lord in remembrance of past mercies. It is as if we should say. Shall we despond now, when the Lord hath blessed so often? Shall our hope fail when God's mercies fail not? Reader! think what an additional argument the church hath now to bring on this ground, since God's dear Son came down from heaven. Romans 8:32.

Psalms 44:1-3

1 We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what work thou didst in their days, in the times of old.

2 How thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and plantedst them; how thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out.

3 For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favour unto them.
