And I will bring you in unto the land, etc.] The land of Canaan: concerning the which I did swear; or lift up my hand f174, which was a gesture used in swearing, (<011422>Genesis 14:22) to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; (see <020604>Exodus 6:4): and I will give it you for an heritage; to be possessed as an inheritance by them, so long as they were obedient to his will, or until the Messiah came: I am the Lord; whose counsels of old are faithfulness and truth; whose promises are yea and amen; whose gifts and calling are without repentance; and who is able also to perform whatever he has said he will do.
