This act of deliverance is central to Israel's identity and relationship with God. It signifies God's power and faithfulness, fulfilling His promise to Abraham (<a href="/genesis/15-13.htm">Genesis 15:13-14</a>). The Exodus is a type of Christ's redemptive work, as Jesus delivers believers from the bondage of sin (<a href="/john/8-34.htm">John 8:34-36</a>). The land of Egypt symbolizes oppression and idolatry, contrasting with the freedom and worship of the true God.<p><b>to be your God</b><br>This phrase emphasizes the covenant relationship between God and Israel. God’s deliverance was not just an act of liberation but was intended to establish a unique relationship where He would be their God, and they would be His people (<a href="/exodus/6-7.htm">Exodus 6:7</a>). This covenant is reiterated throughout the Old Testament and finds its ultimate fulfillment in the New Covenant through Jesus Christ (<a href="/jeremiah/31-33.htm">Jeremiah 31:33</a>, <a href="/hebrews/8-10.htm">Hebrews 8:10</a>). The phrase underscores God's desire for a personal and communal relationship with His people, marked by obedience and worship.<p><b>I am the LORD.</b><br>This declaration asserts God's sovereignty and authority. The name "LORD" (YHWH) is God's personal name revealed to Moses at the burning bush (<a href="/exodus/3-14.htm">Exodus 3:14</a>), signifying His eternal, self-existent nature. It is a reminder of His unchanging character and faithfulness. This statement serves as a divine seal on His commands and promises, reinforcing His role as the covenant-keeping God. It also points to Jesus, who identifies Himself with the "I AM" statements in the Gospel of John, affirming His divinity and continuity with the God of Israel (<a href="/john/8-58.htm">John 8:58</a>).<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_lord.htm">The LORD (Yahweh)</a></b><br>The covenant God of Israel, who reveals Himself as the one true God and the deliverer of His people.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/i/israelites.htm">Israelites</a></b><br>The chosen people of God, whom He delivered from slavery in Egypt and to whom He gave His laws and commandments.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/e/egypt.htm">Egypt</a></b><br>The land of bondage from which God delivered the Israelites, symbolizing sin and oppression.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/m/moses.htm">Moses</a></b><br>The leader chosen by God to bring the Israelites out of Egypt and to whom the laws, including those in Leviticus, were given.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_exodus.htm">The Exodus</a></b><br>The pivotal event of deliverance where God led the Israelites out of Egypt, demonstrating His power and faithfulness.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/g/god's_deliverance_as_a_foundation_for_obedience.htm">God's Deliverance as a Foundation for Obedience</a></b><br>The deliverance from Egypt is a foundational act that establishes God's authority and the basis for Israel's obedience to His laws.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/i/identity_and_relationship_with_god.htm">Identity and Relationship with God</a></b><br>Understanding that God is the one who brought them out of Egypt helps the Israelites (and us) to see their identity as His people and the relational aspect of His commandments.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/r/remembrance_and_gratitude.htm">Remembrance and Gratitude</a></b><br>Regularly remembering God's past acts of deliverance fosters gratitude and strengthens faith, encouraging a life of worship and obedience.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/g/god's_sovereignty_and_faithfulness.htm">God's Sovereignty and Faithfulness</a></b><br>The statement "I am the LORD" underscores God's sovereignty and faithfulness, reminding believers of His unchanging nature and His commitment to His promises.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/a/application_to_christian_life.htm">Application to Christian Life</a></b><br>Just as Israel was called to remember their deliverance, Christians are called to remember their deliverance from sin through Christ, living in a way that reflects their new identity.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_leviticus_22.htm">Top 10 Lessons from Leviticus 22</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/what's_the_tent_of_meeting_for.htm">What is the purpose of the Tent of Meeting?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/why_the_discrepancy_on_jehoshaphat's_actions.htm">In 1 Kings 22:43, why does the text imply Jehoshaphat removed high places when 2 Chronicles 20:33 suggests otherwise?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/why_claim_god_is_present_with_abraham.htm">Why does the text claim God is physically present and conversing with Abraham if other passages emphasize God's transcendence (Genesis 18:1, 22)?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/why_didn't_god_protect_israelites_earlier.htm">Exodus 8:22-23: If God could selectively protect the Israelites from flies, why allow other plagues to harm them earlier?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/leviticus/22.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(33) <span class= "bld">That brought you out.</span>--By this signal act of redemption from bondage, and by choosing them as His peculiar people, God has a special claim upon His redeemed people that they should keep His commandments.
