Esodo 3:15-17

15 Iddio disse ancora a Mosè: "Dirai così ai figliuoli d’Israele: L’Eterno, l’Iddio de’ vostri padri, l’Iddio d’Abrahamo, l’Iddio d’Isacco e l’Iddio di Giacobbe mi ha mandato da voi. Tale è il mio nome in perpetuo, tale la mia designazione per tutte le generazioni.
16 Va’ e raduna gli anziani d’Israele, e di’ loro: L’Eterno, l’Iddio de’ vostri padri, l’Iddio d’Abrahamo, d’Isacco e di Giacobbe m’è apparso, dicendo: Certo, io vi ho visitati, e ho veduto quello che vi si fa in Egitto;
17 e ho detto: Io vi trarrò dall’afflizione d’Egitto, e vi farò salire nel paese dei Cananei, degli Hittei, degli Amorei, de’ Ferezei, degli Hivvei e de’ Gebusei, in un paese ove scorre il latte e il miele.

Esodo 3:15-17 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO EXODUS 2

In this chapter we are informed how that the Lord appeared to Moses in a bush on fire, but not consumed, Ex 3:1-6, declared unto him that he had seen and observed the afflictions of the children of Israel, and was determined to deliver them, Ex 3:7-9, that he gave him a call to be the deliverer of them, answered his objections to it, and instructed him what he should say, both to the elders of Israel and to Pharaoh, Ex 3:10-18, and assured him, that though at first Pharaoh would refuse to let them go, yet after many miracles wrought, he would be willing to dismiss them, when they should depart with great substance, Ex 3:19-22.
