for it is the LORD our God who brought us and our fathers up from the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, and who did the great signs before our eyes and protected us along all the way that we went and among all the peoples through whom we passed — The people's covenant affirmation recites the saving history: Egypt exodus, signs, protection, wandering. The invocation of historical experience ('which we went...which we passed') grounds covenant commitment in witnessed divine action.
