📚 Historical Context
Moses is speaking to the Israelites before they enter the Promised Land, reminding them of all the miraculous things God had done for them in Egypt and during their wilderness journey. This comes after God had demonstrated his power through the plagues in Egypt, the parting of the Red Sea, and his provision in the desert. Moses wants them to remember these experiences as proof that the LORD alone is the true God, especially as they prepare to encounter other nations with their own gods.
