Psalms 105:27

"He sent Moses, his servant, and Aaron, whom he had chosen."

Key Reflection

This verse underscores God's sovereign role in choosing and sending leaders for His people. By referring to Moses and Aaron as God’s servants and choices, it highlights how divine authority and human agency work together in fulfilling God’s purposes.

From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

They shewed his signs among them -literally, “They placed among them the words of his signs.” So the margin. The reference is to the miracles performed in Egypt in bringing calamities upon the Egyptians to induce them to permit the children of Israel to go out from their bondage. They were the agents in setting these wonders before the Egyptians. The term words is employed here - “the words of his signs” - to keep up the idea that it was by the command of God that this was done, or by his word. It was by no power of their own, but only by the authority of God. And wonders in the land of Ham -Miracles. Things suited to produce astonishment.
