Psalms 44:5 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us. Through thee will we push down - Through thy Word, במימרא bemeimra, "Thy substantial Word." - Chaldee. If thou be with us, who can be successfully against us? Literally "We will toss them in the air with our horn;" a metaphor taken from an ox or bull tossing the dogs into the air which attack him.

Through thy name - Jehovah; the infinite, the omnipotent, the eternal Being; whose power none is able to resist.

Psalms 44:5

5 Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us.
