King James Bible
"And he brought us out from thence, that he might bring us in, to give us the land which he sware unto our fathers."
Moses reminds Israel of their exodus from Egypt ('thence'), emphasizing God's active deliverance from slavery. This past rescue forms the foundation for trusting God's future promises. The exodus had a purpose beyond mere liberation—it aimed toward entry into Canaan. This reveals God's redemption as directional, moving from bondage to a specific destination of blessing. The promised land represents God's covenant faithfulness to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. By linking current events to ancient oaths, Moses shows that Israel's story fulfills a multi-generational divine plan.
