Deuteronomy 4:35 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 4:35

Unto thee it was showed
What the Lord did in Egypt:

that thou mightest know that the Lord he [is] God, [there is] none else
besides him;
that he is the one only living and true God, and there is no other: this phrase is often used by the Prophet Isaiah, to express the same great article of faith.

Deuteronomy 4:35 In-Context

33 Have any people ever lived after hearing a god speak to them from a fire, as you have?

34 Has any god ever dared to go and take a people from another nation and make them his own, as the Lord your God did for you in Egypt? Before your very eyes he used his great power and strength; he brought plagues and war, worked miracles and wonders, and caused terrifying things to happen.

35 The Lord has shown you this, to prove to you that he alone is God and that there is no other.

36 He let you hear his voice from heaven so that he could instruct you; and here on earth he let you see his holy fire, and he spoke to you from it.

37 Because he loved your ancestors, he chose you, and by his great power he himself brought you out of Egypt.
