Deuteronomy 29:3 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 29:3

The great temptations which thine eyes have seen
Or trials, the ten plagues which tried the Egyptians, whether they would let Israel go; and tried the Israelites, whether they would believe in the Lord, and trust in his almighty power to deliver them:

the signs and those great miracles:
as the said plagues were such as were beyond the power of nature to produce, and which only Omnipotence could really effect.

Deuteronomy 29:3 In-Context

1 These the words of the covenant, which the Lord commanded Moses to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab, besides the covenant which he made with them in Choreb.
2 And Moses called all the sons of Israel and said to them, Ye have seen all things that the Lord did in the land of Egypt before you to Pharao and his servants, and all his land;
3 the great temptations which thine eyes have seen, the signs, and those great wonders.
4 Yet the Lord God has not given you a heart to know, and eyes to see, and ears to hear, until this day.
5 And he led you forty years in the wilderness; your garments did not grow old, and your sandals were not worn away off your feet.
