Notes

Deuteronomy 7:15

terrible diseases … in Egypt: These might be the same as the plagues, such as those mentioned in Exodus 9:9. They may also include other serious diseases that commonly affected the Egyptians.

Deuteronomy 7:1–26

Before Israel could occupy the promised land, they had to remove the people already living there (compare Genesis 13:14–17; 15:18–21). The land belonged to the Lord, and only God could decide who should live there.
