44:16 Avenger - Who executeth both God's and his own vengeance upon me.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

16. Its cause, the taunts and presence of malignant enemies (Ps 8:2).

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

44:9-16 The believer must have times of temptation, affliction, and discouragement; the church must have seasons of persecution. At such times the people of God will be ready to fear that he has cast them off, and that his name and truth will be dishonoured. But they should look above the instruments of their trouble, to God, well knowing that their worst enemies have no power against them, but what is permitted from above.


Psalm 8:2 From the mouth of infants and nursing babes You have established strength Because of Your adversaries, To make the enemy and the revengeful cease.
