Psalms 43:2 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

For thou art the God of my strength: why dost thou cast me off? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy? For those art the God of my strength - The psalmist speaks here, as in other places in the person of the whole Israelitish people then captive in Babylon. We still acknowledge thee for our God. Why are we cast off? Now that we are humbled and penitent, why are we not enlarged? Why are we not saved from this oppression of the Babylonians?
