Psaume 105:26 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 105:26

He sent Moses his servant
Into Egypt, to deliver his people Israel out of the hands of the Egyptians; in which, as in other things, he approved himself to be a faithful servant to the Lord; of this mission of his, see ( Exodus 3:10-14 ) . In this he was a type of Christ, who appeared in the form of a servant, and really was one; God's righteous servant as Mediator, though his Son as a divine Person; sent by him to redeem his people out of worse than Egyptian bondage, from sin, Satan, the law, its curse and condemnation.

And Aaron whom he had chosen;
to go along with Moses, to be a mouth for him, and a prophet to him, ( Exodus 4:16 ) ( 7:1 ) , who also was a type of Christ, being a priest and good spokesman, chosen and called of God, a holy and an anointed one. The Targum is,

``in whom he was well pleased.''

Psaume 105:26 In-Context

24 Dieu fit fort multiplier son peuple, et le rendit plus puissant que ses oppresseurs.
25 Puis il changea leur cœur, tellement qu'ils haïrent son peuple, et agirent perfidement contre ses serviteurs.
26 Il envoya Moïse, son serviteur, Aaron qu'il avait élu.
27 Ils opérèrent au milieu d'eux ses prodiges, et des miracles dans le pays de Cham.
28 Il envoya des ténèbres, et produisit l'obscurité; et ils ne furent pas rebelles à sa parole.
