Josué 24:17

Listen to Josué 24:17
17 porque el SE脩OR nuestro Dios es el que nos sac贸, a nosotros y a nuestros padres, de la tierra de Egipto, de la casa de servidumbre, el que hizo estas grandes se帽ales delante de nosotros y nos guard贸 por todo el camino en que anduvimos y entre todos los pueblos por entre los cuales pasamos.

Josué 24:17 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 24:17

For the Lord our God, he [it is] that brought us up and our
fathers, out of the land of Egypt
When Pharaoh, the king of it, refused to let them go, yet he wrought such wonders in it and inflicted such plagues on it, as obliged Pharaoh and his people to dismiss them:

from the house of bondage:
where they were held in the greatest thraldom and slavery, and their lives made bitter and miserable:

and which did those great signs in our sight;
meaning the wonders and marvellous things wrought before Pharaoh and his people, and in the sight of Israel, ( Psalms 78:11 Psalms 78:43 ) ; though Abarbinel is of opinion it refers to what had been done in their sight of late in the land of Canaan, as the dividing of the waters of Jordan, the fall of the walls of Jericho, the standing still of the sun in Gibeon; but this seems not so well to agree with what follows:

and preserved us in all the way wherein we went:
in the wilderness from serpents and scorpions, and beasts of prey, and from all dangers from every quarter:

and among all the people through whom we passed;
through whose borders they passed, as the Edomites, Moabites, and Amorites; though the above writer seems to understand it of preservation from the dangers of their enemies in the land of Canaan.

Josué 24:17 In-Context

15 Y si no os parece bien servir al SE脩OR, escoged hoy a qui茅n hab茅is de servir: si a los dioses que sirvieron vuestros padres, que estaban al otro lado del r铆o, o a los dioses de los amorreos en cuya tierra habit谩is; pero yo y mi casa, serviremos al SE脩OR.
16 Y el pueblo respondi贸, y dijo: Lejos est茅 de nosotros abandonar al SE脩OR para servir a otros dioses;
17 porque el SE脩OR nuestro Dios es el que nos sac贸, a nosotros y a nuestros padres, de la tierra de Egipto, de la casa de servidumbre, el que hizo estas grandes se帽ales delante de nosotros y nos guard贸 por todo el camino en que anduvimos y entre todos los pueblos por entre los cuales pasamos.
18 Y el SE脩OR ech贸 de delante de nosotros a todos los pueblos, incluso a los amorreos, que moraban en la tierra. Nosotros, pues, tambi茅n serviremos al SE脩OR, porque El es nuestro Dios.
19 Entonces Josu茅 dijo al pueblo: No podr茅is servir al SE脩OR, porque El es Dios santo, El es Dios celoso; El no perdonar谩 vuestra transgresi贸n ni vuestros pecados.
