And then how very touching and beautiful to mark the way in which Moses insists upon the fact that the people were Jehovah's inheritance, and that He had brought them up out of Egypt. The Lord had said, "_Thy_ people which _thou_ hast brought forth out of Egypt;" but Moses says, "They are _Thy_ people, and _Thine_ inheritance, which _Thou_ broughtest out." This is perfectly exquisite. Indeed this whole scene is full of profound interest.
