“(For ye know how we haue dwelt in the land of Egypt, and how we came thorow the nations which ye passed by.”
1611 King James Version (KJV)
29:16 Egypt - Where you have seen their idolatries, and learned too much of them, as the golden calf shewed, and therefore have need to renew your covenant with God; where also we were in dreadful bondage whence God alone hath delivered us, to whom therefore we are deeply obliged, and have all reason to renew our covenant with him. Through the nations - With what hazard, if God had not appeared for us!
