“Yet they are thy people and thine inheritance, which thou broughtest out by thy mighty power and by thy stretched out arm.”
But they are your people, your inheritance that you brought out by your great power and your outstretched arm — the closing restatement binds Israel inseparably to the LORD through the exodus language (great power, outstretched arm). Despite Israel's sinfulness, the LORD's investment in redemption creates an obligation not to abandon the covenant.
