This verse specifically points to the miracles and provisions God provided in the wilderness, such as manna, water from the rock, and protection from enemies, over the 40 years of wandering. These recollections were intended to reinforce the covenant and encourage obedience in the new generation that had not witnessed the Exodus firsthand.
