Deuteronomy 7:7 - Forerunner Commentary

Deuteronomy 7:7

5 But thus you shall deal with them: you shall ^adestroy their altars, and break down their sacred pillars, and cut down their¹ wooden images, and burn their carved images with fire.

6 “For you are a¹ holy people to the Lord your God; ^athe Lord your God has chosen you to be a people for Himself, a special treasure above all the peoples on the face of the earth.

7 The Lord did not set His ^alove on you nor choose you because you were more in number than any other people, for you were ^bthe least of all peoples;

8 but ^abecause the Lord loves you, and because He would keep ^bthe oath which He swore to your fathers, ^cthe Lord has brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you from the house of¹ bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.

9 “Therefore know that the Lord your God, He is God, ^athe faithful God ^bwho keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commandments;

10 and He repays those who hate Him to their face, to destroy them. He will not¹ be ^aslack with him who hates Him; He will repay him to his face.
