And I will bring you in unto the land,.... The land of Canaan: concerning the which I did swear; or lift up my hand (a), which was a gesture used in swearing, Gen 14:22. to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; see Exo 6:4, and I will give it you for an heritage; to be possessed as an inheritance by them, so long as they were obedient to his will, or until the Messiah came: I am the Lord; whose counsels of old are faithfulness and truth; whose promises are yea and amen; whose gifts and calling are without repentance; and who is able also to perform whatever he has said he will do. (a) "levavi manum meam", Pagninus, Montanus, Munster.
