Commentary on Psalms 44:23
The bold imperative: 'Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord?' This anthropomorphic language doesn't suggest God actually sleeps but expresses the felt experience of divine inactivity. 'Arise, cast us not off for ever' pleads for intervention. The prayer assumes God can act but apparently chooses not to, creating the theological tension.
