Verse 22
- Before our eyes. This phrase may suggest that the plagues inflicted upon Pharaoh were for the benefit of Israel. That is, perhaps another method may have been employed to free the Israelites from Egypt but would not have left as strong of an impression on the Israelites. In Deut 28:60 Israel is warned that the plagues will befall them if they are not obedient to God's laws.
[edit]
Verse 24
- Fear the Lord. See Deut 6:13 for more on the theme of fearing and loving God in this chapter. Also, see Deut 28:58-68 for the curses that await Israel if they are not obedient to God's laws, thus providing a good reason to fear God.
