Amos 2:10 Meaning and Commentary

Amos 2:10

Also I brought you up from the land of Egypt
Where they were bond slaves, and in great affliction and distress, and unable to help themselves; but the Lord wrought deliverance for them, and brought them out of this house of bondage with a high hand and a mighty arm: and led you forty years through the wilderness:
going before them in a pillar of cloud by day, and in a pillar of fire by night; providing them with all things necessary, with food and raiment, and protecting them from all their enemies: to possess the land of the Amorite;
the whole land of Canaan, so called from a principal nation of it.
