Numeri 15:41 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 15:41

I [am] the Lord your God
Their Creator, Preserver, and Benefactor, their Lord and Sovereign, their covenant God and Father:

which brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God;
to make it appear that he was their God in a special relation, and that he took the special care and government of them; and which was manifest by the system of laws he gave them to observe, as well as by his provision for them on all accounts, and by his protection of them:

I [am] the Lord your God;
who had a right to enact laws, and enjoin the observance of them, as he was the Lord Jehovah; and they were under obligation to regard them, as he was not only their Creator but their covenant God and Father, who had bestowed his favours liberally on them.

Numeri 15:41 In-Context

39 Sarà questa una nappa d’ornamento, e quando la guarderete, vi ricorderete di tutti i comandamenti dell’Eterno per metterli in pratica; e non andrete vagando dietro ai desideri del vostro cuore e dei vostri occhi che vi trascinano alla infedeltà.
40 Così vi ricorderete di tutti i miei comandamenti, li metterete in pratica, e sarete santi al vostro Dio.
41 Io sono l’Eterno, il vostro Dio, che vi ho tratti dal paese d’Egitto per essere vostro Dio. Io sono l’Eterno, l’Iddio vostro".
