I lifted up mine hand also to them in the wilderness, &c.] Swore unto them, as in (<262005>Ezekiel 20:5,6,15); that I would scatter them among the Heathen, and disperse them through the countries; after they came to be settled in the land of Canaan, they sinning against the Lord; which was fulfilled in the times of the Babylonish captivity, and in their destruction by the Romans; but was threatened and foretold while they were in the wilderness, (<032633>Leviticus 26:33) (<053226>Deuteronomy 32:26); with this compare (<19A626>Psalm 106:26-30).
