9:12-21 This prayer reminded the people of God’s miraculous direction of Israel in the wilderness (Exod 13:21-22), his personal appearance at Mount Sinai to reveal his covenant laws through Moses (see Exod 19–20), and his faithfulness in providing bread . . . and water (see Exod 16:4; 17:1-6). Despite all of that, Israel’s ancestors had been proud and stubborn and refused to obey (see Exod 32; Num 14:4). Yet in his grace, God remained faithful and had compassion (see Exod 34:6) and provided his Spirit to direct and teach them (cp. Exod 33:2; Num 11:17).
