Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 14. - Lord, why cutest thou off my soul? The psalmist speaks here, like Job, as one aggrieved. What has he done to be "cast off"? He is evidently not aware of having sinned any grievous sin, and does not understand why he is visited with such grievous sufferings. Why hidest thou thy face from me? Perhaps it is his insensibility, his unconsciousness of real sins and shortcomings, that has drawn down upon the psalmist his chastisement.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(14) Castest thou off.--The idea is that of throwing away something with loathing. (Comp. Psalm 43:2.)
