EXPLANATION

Verse 1. Changed. Psalms 44:Title, Psalms 15. doctrine explaining what will be the progress of the Church. Menochius.—It seems to have the same import as understanding, in other titles, but here is of little authority. Bert.—It has no connexion with the psalm, which seems to have been written before David had obtained the sovereignty over Israel, (Houbig. verse 8) or it expresses the sentiments of the captives, ( Calmet.) and of Jesus Christ, and his Church. Saint Augustine
