Psaume 105:26 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 105:26

He sent Moses his servant
Into Egypt, to deliver his people Israel out of the hands of the Egyptians; in which, as in other things, he approved himself to be a faithful servant to the Lord; of this mission of his, see ( Exodus 3:10-14 ) . In this he was a type of Christ, who appeared in the form of a servant, and really was one; God's righteous servant as Mediator, though his Son as a divine Person; sent by him to redeem his people out of worse than Egyptian bondage, from sin, Satan, the law, its curse and condemnation.

And Aaron whom he had chosen;
to go along with Moses, to be a mouth for him, and a prophet to him, ( Exodus 4:16 ) ( 7:1 ) , who also was a type of Christ, being a priest and good spokesman, chosen and called of God, a holy and an anointed one. The Targum is,

``in whom he was well pleased.''

Psaume 105:26 In-Context

24 Il rendit son peuple très fécond, Et plus puissant que ses adversaires.
25 Il changea leur coeur, au point qu'ils haïrent son peuple Et qu'ils traitèrent ses serviteurs avec perfidie.
26 Il envoya Moïse, son serviteur, Et Aaron, qu'il avait choisi.
27 Ils accomplirent par son pouvoir des prodiges au milieu d'eux, Ils firent des miracles dans le pays de Cham.
28 Il envoya des ténèbres et amena l'obscurité, Et ils ne furent pas rebelles à sa parole.
