10 To Him smiting Egypt in their first-born, For to the age 'is' His kindness. 11 And bringing forth Israel from their midst, For to the age 'is' His kindness. 12 By a strong hand, and a stretched-out-arm, For to the age 'is' His kindness. 13 To Him cutting the sea of Suph into parts, For to the age 'is' His kindness, 14 And caused Israel to pass through its midst, For to the age 'is' His kindness, 15 And shook out Pharaoh and his force in the sea of Suph, For to the age 'is' His kindness. 16 To Him leading His people in a wilderness, For to the age 'is' His kindness. 17 To Him smiting great kings, For to the age 'is' His kindness. 18 Yea, He doth slay honourable kings, For to the age 'is' His kindness. 19 Even Sihon king of the Amorite, For to the age 'is' His kindness. 20 And Og king of Bashan, For to the age 'is' His kindness. 21 And He gave their land for inheritance, For to the age 'is' His kindness. 22 An inheritance to Israel His servant, For to the age 'is' His kindness.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Psalm 136:10-22
Commentary on Psalm 136:10-22
(Read Psalm 136:10-22)
The great things God did for Israel, when he brought them out of Egypt, were mercies which endured long to them; and our redemption by Christ, which was typified thereby, endures for ever. It is good to enter into the history of God's favours, and in each to observe, and own, that his mercy endureth for ever. He put them in possession of a good land; it was a figure of the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ.
