John Gill Commentary Psalms 44:20

"If we have forgotten the name of our God, Or spread forth our hands to a strange god;" — Psalms 44:20 (ASV)

If we have forgotten the name of our God As antichrist, and the antichristian party did in those times, (Daniel 11:36Daniel 11:37) ;

or stretched out our hands to a strange god ; as not to any of the Heathen deities under the Pagan persecutions, so not to any images of gold, silver, brass, and wood, under the Papal tyranny; not to the Virgin Mary, nor to angels and saints departed; nor to the breaden God in the mass, never heard of before; see (Daniel 11:38Daniel 11:39) (Revelation 9:21) .
