SEV Biblia, Chapter 12:8
Después que Jacob hubo entrado en Egipto y vuestros padres clamaron al SEÑOR, el SEÑOR envió a Moisés y a Aarón, los cuales sacaron a vuestros padres de Egipto, y los hicieron habitar en este lugar.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 1 Samuel 12:8
Verse 8. The Lord sent Moses and Aaron] He shows them that through all their history God had ever raised them up deliverers, when their necessities required such interference.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 8. When Jacob was come into Egypt , etc.] With his family to see his son Joseph, and dwelt there; or rather the posterity of Jacob are meant, who settled in Egypt, and continued there many years, and at length were oppressed by the Egyptians, and brought into hard bondage: and your fathers cried unto the Lord ; by reason of their bondage, for help and deliverance: then the Lord sent Moses and Aaron, which brought forth your fathers out of Egypt ; after various messages carried by them from the Lord to Pharaoh king of Egypt, and after many signs and wonders wrought by them, by which the heart of that king was at last brought to consent to their dismission: and made them dwell in this place ; the land of Canaan; they conducted them through the Red sea, guided them through the wilderness, and accompanied them, especially Moses, to the borders of the land of Canaan; for neither of them went into it, but died before the people’s entrance there. Joshua, the successor of Moses, of whom Samuel makes no mention, introduced Israel into it, conquered the land for them, and settled them in it; though Moses and Aaron, as they were the instruments of bringing them out of Egypt, were the cause, by conducting them through the wilderness, and by their prayers, counsels, and instructions, of their entrance into and settlement in it: besides, Moses appointed Joshua in his stead, and ordered him to lead the people there, and directed to the division of the land among them, yea, two tribes and an half were settled by him on the other side Jordan; the Septuagint, Vulgate Latin, Syriac, and Arabic versions, read in the singular number, “he made them dwell, that is, the Lord”.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 6-15 - The work of ministers is to reason with people; not only to exhort an direct, but to persuade, to convince men's judgments, and so to gai their wills and affections. Samuel reasons of the righteous acts of the Lord. Those who follow God faithfully, he will enable to continu following him. Disobedience would certainly be the ruin of Israel. We mistake if we think that we can escape God's justice, by trying to shake off his dominion. If we resolve that God shall not rule us, ye he will judge us.
