Verse 8
But because the Lord loved you ,.... With an unmerited love; he loved them, because he loved them; that is, because he would love them; his love was not owing to any goodness in them, or done by them, or any love in them to him, but to his own good will and pleasure:
and because he would keep the oath which he had sworn unto your fathers ; the promise he had made, confirmed by an oath:
hath the Lord brought you out with a mighty hand ; out of the land of Egypt:
and redeemed you out of the house of bondmen ; where they were bondmen to the Egyptians:
from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt ; who detained them, and refused to let them go.
