Isaiah 63:8. For he said,
In the old time, when God called his people out of Egypt, he said this.
Isaiah 63:8. Surely they are my people, children that will not lie:
Or, children that will not act deceitfully; or, will not deal falsely.
Isaiah 63:8. So he was their Saviour.
He thought well of them. He treated them as though they were trustworthy. He took them into his confidence. He said, "Surely they will not deceive me." This is speaking after the manner of men, of course; for God knows us, and is never deceived in us. We may deceive others; we may even deceive ourselves; but we can never deceive him.
