Exodus 6:8

John Gill - Exposition - John Gill

Read in KJV Bible Reader

And I will bring you in unto the land,.... The land of Canaan:

concerning the which I did swear; or lift up my hand (a), which was a gesture used in swearing, Genesis 14:22

to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; see Exodus 6:4:

and I will give it you for an heritage; to be possessed as an inheritance by them, so long as they were obedient to his will, or until the Messiah came:

I am the Lord; whose counsels of old are faithfulness and truth; whose promises are yea and amen; whose gifts and calling are without repentance; and who is able also to perform whatever he has said he will do.

(a) נשאתי את ידי "levavi manum meam", Pagninus, Montanus, Munster.
