Gill's Notes on the Bible
Also I brought you up from the land of Egypt,.... Where they were bond slaves, and in great affliction and distress, and unable to help themselves; but the Lord wrought deliverance for them, and brought them out of this house of bondage with a high hand and a mighty arm:
and led you forty years through the wilderness: going before them in a pillar of cloud by day, and in a pillar of fire by night; providing them with all things necessary, with food and raiment, and protecting them from all their enemies:
to possess the land of the Amorite; the whole land of Canaan, so called from a principal nation of it.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Also I - (Literally, âAnd I,â I, emphatic; thus and thus did ye to Me; and thus and thus, with all the mercy from the first, did I to you,) I brought you up from the land of Egypt It is this language in which God, in the law, reminded them of that great benefit, as a motive to obedience; âI brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondageâ Exodus 20:2; Deuteronomy 5:6; Deuteronomy 6:12; only there, since God has not as yet âbrought them upâ into the land which He promised them, but they were yet in the wilderness, He says, âbrought them forth;â here, âbrought them up,â as to a place of dignity, His own land.
And led you forty years through the wilderness - These are the very words of the law (Deuteronomy 29:4, (5 English), and reminded them of so many benefits during the course of those âforty years,â which the law rehearsed; the daily supply of manna, the water from the rock, the deliverance from the serpents and other perils, the manifold forgivenesses. To be âled forty years through the wilderness,â alone, had been no kindness, but a punishment. It was a blending of both. The abiding in the wilderness was punishment or austere mercy, keeping them back from the land which they had shown themselves unqualified to enter: Godâs âleadingâ them was, His condescending mercy. The words, taken from the law, must have re-awakened in the souls of Israelites the memory of mercies which they did not mention, how that same book relates âHe found him in a desert land, and in the waste howling wilderness; He led him about; He instructed him; He kept him as the apple of His eye. The Lord alone did lead himâ Deuteronomy 32:10, Deuteronomy 32:12. In the wilderness, where thou hast seen how that the Lord thy God bare thee, as a man doth bear his son, in all the way that ye went until ye came to this placeâ Deuteronomy 1:31; or that minute tender care, mentioned in the same place (Deuteronomy 29:4, (5, English)), âyour clothes are not waxen old upon you, and thy shoe is not waxen old upon thy foot.â But unless Israel had known the law well, the words would only have been very distantly suggestive of mercy, that it must have been well with them even in the wilderness, since God âled them.â They had then the law in their memories, in Israel also , but distorted it or neglected it.
