📚 Historical Context
Moses was speaking to the Israelites as they prepared to enter the Promised Land, where they would face various nations that seemed stronger than them. He was reminding them of God's mighty acts during the Exodus from Egypt, when God demonstrated His power through the ten plagues and the parting of the Red Sea. This encouragement came as they stood on the brink of conquering Canaan after 40 years in the wilderness.
