2:5 I have given them: God’s gift of a promised land was not limited to Israel. He also distributed lands to Edom, Moab (2:9), Ammon (2:19), and the Caphtorites (2:22-23). Although God had chosen Israel as a special nation (1:31; see also 7:6; 14:2; Exod 19:5), he is also the God of all nations and has a place and purpose for each (Deut 32:8; Acts 17:26)—even for those that do not recognize his sovereignty (Rom 1:16-23).
