Deuteronomy 26:8 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 26:8

And the Lord brought us forth out of Egypt
After some time:

with a mighty hand and with an outstretched arm;
by his almighty power, of which full proof was given by what he then did, ( Deuteronomy 5:15 ) ;

and with great terribleness:
to Pharaoh and his people, through the plagues that were inflicted on them, especially the last, the slaying of their firstborn; see ( Deuteronomy 4:34 ) ;

and with signs and with wonders;
wrought by the hands of Moses and Aaron, meaning the ten plagues, often so called.

6 But the Egyptians were cruel to us, making us suffer and work very hard.

8 the Lord brought us out of Egypt with his great power and strength, using great terrors, signs, and miracles.

9 Then he brought us to this place and gave us this fertile land.

10 Now I bring part of the first harvest from this land that you, Lord, have given me." Place the basket before the Lord your God and bow down before him.
