Deuteronomy 6:23 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 6:23

And he brought us out from thence
By means of those miraculous plagues, even out of a state of bondage and misery: and in order

that he might bring us in, to give us the land which he sware unto our
fathers;
to bring them into the land of Canaan, give it to them, and put them in the possession of it; and so fulfil his promise and his oath made to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
