Commentary

But because the Lord loved you,.... With an unmerited love; he loved them, because he loved them; that is, because he would lov e them; his love was not owing to any goodness in them, or done by them, or any love in them to him, but to his own good will and pleasure: and because he would keep the oath which he had sworn unto your fathers; the promise he had made, confirmed by an oath: hath the Lord brought you out with a mighty hand; out of the land of Egypt: and redeemed you out of the house of bondmen; where they were bondmen to the Egyptians: from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt; who detained them, and refused to let them go.
