Exodus 15:17-18 You shall bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of your inheritance, in the place, O LORD… Two ways this great deliverance was encouraging. 1. It was such an instance of God's power as would terrify their enemies and quite dishearten them (vers. 14-16). It had this effect (see Deuteronomy 2:4; Numbers 22:3; Joshua 2:9, 10). 2. It was such a beginning of God's favour to them as gave them an earnest of the perfection of His kindness. This was but in order to something further (ver. 17). ( M. Henry, D. D..) Parallel Verses KJV: Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, in the place, O LORD, which thou hast made for thee to dwell in, in the Sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established. |
