21. Redeemed out of Egypt. Satan tried to crush the people of the Lord in Egypt and to claim them as his. But God redeemed them, demonstrating His wonderful power over all the wiles of the enemy, and bringing His chosen ones out with a mighty hand, to establish them in a land He had promised them as their inheritance. The hearts of devout Israelites welled up with praise and joy when they allowed themselves to think of the wonderful mercy and power displayed by God when He brought His people out of Egypt and established them in the Promised Land.
