VI.
GOD’S RENEWAL AND ENLARGEMENT OF HIS PROMISES.
(1) Now shalt thou see. — Moses’ complaint was that God delayed, and “was slack as concerning His promise.” Hitherto He had not “delivered His people at all.” The answer,”Now shalt thou see,” is an assurance that there will be no more delay; the work is just about to begin, and Moses will behold it. He will then cease to doubt.
With a strong hand shall he let them go. — Rather, through a strong hand: i.e., through the compulsion which my strong hand will exert on him,
Drive them. — Comp. Exodus 12:31-33.
