Passage

But He brought us out from there in order to bring us in, to give us the land which He had sworn to our fathers.’

Nearby Context

Deuteronomy 6:21 then you shall say to your son, ‘We were slaves to Pharaoh in Egypt, and Yahweh brought us from Egypt with a strong hand.

Deuteronomy 6:22 Moreover, Yahweh showed great and calamitous signs and wonders before our eyes against Egypt, Pharaoh, and all his household;

Deuteronomy 6:23 But He brought us out from there in order to bring us in, to give us the land which He had sworn to our fathers.’

Deuteronomy 6:24 So Yahweh commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear Yahweh our God for our good all our days and for our survival, as it is today.

Deuteronomy 6:25 And it will be righteousness for us if we are careful to do all this commandment before Yahweh our God, just as He commanded us.

Study Lenses

The verse centers on "brought", "order", "bring", "give", "land", "sworn", and "fathers". It is saying that the verse draws attention to "brought" and "order", so its meaning should be read from those terms before moving to application.

The nearby context moves from verse 22's "Moreover Yahweh showed great and calamitous signs..." into verse 24's "So Yahweh commanded us to do all...", so "brought" and "order" belong inside that flow. In Deuteronomy context, the local focus is covenant, worship, and faithfulness.

A plain takeaway is to answer the verse's own emphasis on "brought" and "order" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
