Deuteronomy 7:21 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 7:21

Thou shall not be affrighted at them
At their numbers, nor at their gigantic stature:

for the Lord thy God is among you:
in the tabernacle, in the holy of holies, which was in the midst of them, and besides would give proof of his powerful presence among them, in protecting them, and destroying their enemies;

a mighty God and terrible;
mighty to save his people, and terrible to others.

Deuteronomy 7:21 In-Context

19 With your own eyes you saw what the LORD did to them. You saw his miraculous signs and wonders. He reached out his mighty hand and powerful arm. The LORD your God used all of those things to bring you out. He will do the same things to all of the nations you are now afraid of.
20 The LORD your God will also send hornets among them. Some of the people who are left alive will hide from you. But even they will die.
21 So don't be terrified by them. The LORD your God is with you. He is a great and wonderful God.
22 The LORD your God will drive out those nations to make room for you. But he will do it little by little. You won't be allowed to get rid of them all at once. If you did, wild animals would multiply all around you.
23 But the LORD your God will hand those nations over to you. He will throw them into a panic until they are destroyed.
