SEV Biblia, Chapter 9:26
Y oré al SEÑOR, diciendo: Oh Señor DIOS, no destruyas a tu pueblo y a tu heredad que has redimido con tu grandeza, al cual sacaste de Egipto con mano fuerte.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 26. And I prayed therefore unto the Lord , etc.] What follows is a different prayer from that in ( Exodus 32:31,32) and agrees better with that in ( Deuteronomy 9:11,10,13), delivered before he came down from the mount, yet could not be the same, because delivered at another forty days and nights: and said, O Lord God, destroy not thy people, and thine inheritance : because they were his inheritance, a people whom he had chosen for his peculiar treasure; this is the first argument used, another follows: which thou hast redeemed through thy greatness ; redeemed out of the house of bondage, the land of Egypt, by his great power, as next explained: which thou hast brought forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand : inflicting plagues on the Egyptians, particularly destroying their firstborn, which made them the Israelites urge to depart.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 7-29 - That the Israelites might have no pretence to think that God brough them to Canaan for their righteousness, Moses shows what a miracle of mercy it was, that they had not been destroyed in the wilderness. It is good for us often to remember against ourselves, with sorrow and shame our former sins; that we may see how much we are indebted to fre grace, and may humbly own that we never merited any thing but wrath an the curse at God's hand. For so strong is our propensity to pride, tha it will creep in under one pretence or another. We are ready to fanc that our righteousness has got for us the special favour of the Lord though in reality our wickedness is more plain than our weakness. But when the secret history of every man's life shall be brought forth a the day of judgment, all the world will be proved guilty before God. A present, One pleads for us before the mercy-seat, who not only fasted but died upon the cross for our sins; through whom we may approach though self-condemned sinners, and beseech for undeserved mercy and for eternal life, as the gift of God in Him. Let us refer all the victory all the glory, and all the praise, to Him who alone bringeth salvation __________________________________________________________________
