“Then thine heart be lifted up, and thou forget the Lord thy God, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage;”
Then your heart will become proud and you will forget the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery — the heart's pride (the Hebrew lebab, the seat of will and intention) becomes the generative sin from which forgetfulness flows. To forget the foundational exodus-liberation is to lose the primary narrative of divine grace that defines Israel's identity.
