Esodo 32:13

Listen to Esodo 32:13
13 Ricordati di Abrahamo, d’Isacco e d’Israele, tuoi servitori, ai quali tu giurasti per te stesso; ed a’ quali dicesti: Io moltiplicherò la vostra progenie, come le stelle del cielo; e darò alla vostra progenie tutto questo paese, del quale io ho parlato, acciocchè lo possegga in perpetuo.

Esodo 32:13 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 32:13

Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants
The covenant he made with them, the promise he had made unto them, with an oath annexed to it:

to whom thou swarest by thine own self;
which he did, because he could swear by no greater; and for the confirmation of his covenant and promise, see ( Genesis 22:16 )

and saidst unto them;
for what was said to Abraham was repeated and confirmed to Isaac and Jacob:

I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven;
multitudes of which are out of sight, and cannot be seen with the naked eye, nor numbered:

and all this land that I have spoken of;
the land of Canaan, then inhabited by several nations:

will I give unto your seed, and they shall inherit it for ever;
as long as they are a people, a body politic, and especially while obedient to the divine will; but should they be now cut off, this promise would become of no effect: this is the great argument Moses makes use of, and the most forcible one.

Esodo 32:13 In-Context

11 Ma Mosè supplicò al Signore Iddio suo, e disse: Perchè si accenderebbe, o Signore, l’ira tua contro al tuo popolo, che tu hai tratto fuor del paese di Egitto, con gran forza e con possente mano?
12 Perchè direbbero gli Egizj: Egli li ha tratti fuori per male, per farli morir su per que’ monti, e per consumarli d’in su la terra? Racqueta il tuo cruccio acceso, e pentiti di questo male inverso il tuo popolo.
13 Ricordati di Abrahamo, d’Isacco e d’Israele, tuoi servitori, ai quali tu giurasti per te stesso; ed a’ quali dicesti: Io moltiplicherò la vostra progenie, come le stelle del cielo; e darò alla vostra progenie tutto questo paese, del quale io ho parlato, acciocchè lo possegga in perpetuo.
14 E il Signore si pentì del male che avea detto di fare al suo popolo.
15 E Mosè, rivoltosi, scese dal monte, avendo in mano le due Tavole della Testimonianza, tavole scritte da’ due lati, di qua e di là.
