Deuteronomy 7:19 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 7:19

The great temptations which thine eyes saw, and the signs, and
the wonders
The miracles wrought in Egypt; see ( Deuteronomy 4:34 )

and the mighty hand, and stretched out arm, whereby the Lord thy God
brought thee out;
that is, out of Egypt, which was an instance and proof of his almighty power:

so shall the Lord thy God do unto all the people of whom thou art
afraid;
not perform the same miraculous operations among them, but exert the same power in the destruction of them, and in dispossessing them of their land, as in destroying the Egyptians, and delivering Israel from among them.
