- Psalms 44:2-3 You drove out the nations with your hand, but you planted them. You afflicted the peoples, but you spread them abroad.

And I said unto you, I am the Lord your God, The covenant God of them and their fathers, and they ought not to have owned and acknowledged any other besides him:
fear not the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell; meaning not a fear of being hurt by them, but such a fear and reverence of them as to worship them, which was only to be given to the Lord. The Amorites are here put for all the Canaanites, they being a principal people among them:

but ye have not obeyed my voice; to cleave to him, fear and worship him; they had been guilty of idolatry, and this is the sin the prophet was sent to reprove them for, and bring them to a sense of.

9. that oppressed you] See on Jdg_2:18; and drave them out cf. Exo_34:11 JE, Jos_24:18 E. Jdg_6:8-9 are repeated in 1Sa_10:18, possibly copied from here.
The aim of Jdg_6:7-10 is to enforce the principle that reformation must precede deliverance. But the prophet has hardly reached this point when his speech is abruptly broken off, and one of the main narratives begins (11–24). These verses must be earlier than the Dtc. compiler, who would not have curtailed the speech had he inserted it himself. They seem to be the handiwork of the Elohistic school; thus because of in Jdg_6:7 (an uncommon expression in Hebr.), cf. Gen_21:11; Gen_21:25, Num_12:1 etc. E; brought you up from Egypt Jdg_6:8, cf. Gen_46:4; Gen_50:24, Jos_24:17 E (also in J); from the house of bondage Jdg_6:8, cf. Exo_13:3; Exo_13:14 JE, Exo_20:2 E, Jos_24:17 E (also in D); the Amorites Jdg_6:9, cf. Gen_15:16, Num_21:13; Num_21:21; Num_21:31, Jos_24:8; Jos_24:15; Jos_24:18 etc. E, and see Jdg_1:34 n. The parallels with Jos_24:15-20 are particularly noticeable.
