Gill's Notes on the Bible
If the Lord delight in us,.... Continue to delight in them as he had, and as appears by what he had done for, them in Egypt, at the Red sea, and in the wilderness; see Deuteronomy 10:15;
then he will bring us into this land, and give it us, as he has promised,
a land which floweth with milk and honey; as the Lord himself hath described it, and as the unbelieving spies themselves had owned it;
Numbers 13:27.
