SEV Biblia, Chapter 26:45
Antes me acordaré de ellos por el pacto antiguo, cuando los saqué de la tierra de Egipto a los ojos de los gentiles, para ser su Dios: Yo soy el SEÑOR.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 45. But I will for their sakes remember the covenant of their ancestors , etc.] Or rather, “remember to them” f925 , to their good and benefit, for their profit and advantage, not for their desert and merit, for any worth or worthiness in them; this covenant respects not the covenant made with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, as in ( Leviticus 26:42); but with their fathers, either at Sinai, or rather in the plains of Moab, ( Deuteronomy 29:1), for it follows: whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the Heathen, that I might be their God ; whom he brought out of great bondage and distress in Egypt, with an high hand and outstretched arm, and in the sight of the Egyptians, who were not able to oppose it, yea, because of their plagues, were urgent for it; and in the sight of all the nations round about, who heard of the wonderful power of God in the deliverance of his people; and this he did that he might appear to be their covenant God, who had taken them into covenant with him, and had taken them under his care and protection, and would be still their King and their God; and who also, in like manner, it may be here suggested, would deliver the people of the Jews out of their present exiled and captive state and condition in the sight of the whole world, and declare himself their covenant God and Father: I [am] the Lord ; whose will is sovereign, whose power is uncontrollable, who is a covenant keeping God, faithful to his promises, and able to perform them.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 40-46 - Among the Israelites, persons were not always prosperous or afflicte according to their obedience or disobedience. But national prosperit was the effect of national obedience, and national judgments wer brought on by national wickedness. Israel was under a peculia covenant. National wickedness will end in the ruin of any people especially where the word of God and the light of the gospel ar enjoyed. Sooner or later, sin will be the ruin, as well as the reproach, of every people. Oh that, being humbled for our sins, we might avert the rising storm before it bursts upon us! God grant tha we may, in this our day, consider the things which belong to ou eternal peace __________________________________________________________________
