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 You saw with your own eyes the terrible plagues, the miraculous signs, and the amazing things the LORD did. He used his mighty hand and powerful arm to bring you out. He will do the same thing to all the people you're afraid of.
20 The LORD your God will spread panic among them until they all die. There will be no one left--not even those who were hiding from you.
21 Don't be afraid of them, because the LORD your God is with you. He is a great and awe-inspiring God.
22 Little by little he will force these nations out of your way. You won't be able to wipe them out quickly. Otherwise, you would be overrun with wild animals.
23 The LORD your God will hand these people over to you and will throw them into a great panic until they're destroyed.
