Wesley's Explanatory Notes
Psalms 44
Scattered - Those who were not slain are carried into captivity, and dispersed in several places.
Yet - Although we cannot excuse ourselves from many other sins, yet through thy grace we have kept ourselves from apostacy and idolatry, notwithstanding all examples and provocations.
Broken us - By inflicting upon us one breach after another, thou hast at last brought us to this pass. The place - A place extremely desolate, such as dragons love, Isaiah 13:21-22 , and therefore full of horror, and danger. Covered us - With deadly horrors and miseries.
Our soul - Our persons. Our belly - We are not only thrown down to the earth, but we lie there like dead carcases.
