Deuteronomio 26:19 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 26:19

To make thee high above all nations
None of them having the Lord to be their God and King in such sense as Israel, nor they his people in such a peculiar sense as they were; nor having such laws and statutes as he had given to them; these things gave them a superiority over all other nations:

which he hath made, in praise, and in name, and in honour;
that is, which nations he made praiseworthy, famous, and honourable, for their extent, wealth, riches, and number; and yet on the above accounts Israel was advanced higher than they:

and that thou mayest be an holy people unto the Lord thy God, as he
hath spoken;
the end of the Lord in being their God, and making them his people, was not only to make them high above all others, but to make them more holy than others; to set them apart for himself, as a people sacred to his worship and service, as he had both determined and declared, ( Deuteronomy 7:6 Deuteronomy 7:7 ) .

Deuteronomio 26:19 In-Context

17 Has declarado hoy que el SEÑOR es tu Dios y que andarás en sus caminos y guardarás sus estatutos, sus mandamientos y sus ordenanzas, y que escucharás su voz.
18 Y el SEÑOR ha declarado hoy que tú eres su pueblo, su exclusiva posesión, como El te prometió, y que debes guardar todos sus mandamientos;
19 y que El te pondrá en alto sobre todas las naciones que ha hecho, para alabanza, renombre y honor; y serás un pueblo consagrado al SEÑOR tu Dios, como El ha dicho.
