Psalms 44:19 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

Though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shadow of death. Thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons - Thou hast delivered us into the hands of a fierce, cruel, and murderous people. We, as a people, are in a similar state to one who has strayed into a wilderness, where there are no human inhabitants; who hears nothing round about him but the hissing of serpents, the howling of beasts of prey, and the terrible roaring of the lion; and who expects every moment to be devoured.
