10 To him who put to death the first-fruits of Egypt: for his mercy is unchanging for ever: 11 And took out Israel from among them: for his mercy is unchanging for ever: 12 With a strong hand and an outstretched arm: for his mercy is unchanging for ever. 13 To him who made a way through the Red Sea: for his mercy is unchanging for ever: 14 And let Israel go through it: for his mercy is unchanging for ever: 15 By him Pharaoh and his army were overturned in the Red Sea: for his mercy is unchanging for ever. 16 To him who took his people through the waste land: for his mercy is unchanging for ever. 17 To him who overcame great kings: for his mercy is unchanging for ever: 18 And put noble kings to death: for his mercy is unchanging for ever: 19 Sihon, king of the Amorites: for his mercy is unchanging for ever: 20 And Og, king of Bashan: for his mercy is unchanging for ever: 21 And gave their land to his people for a heritage: for his mercy is unchanging for ever. 22 Even a heritage for his servant Israel: for his mercy is unchanging for ever.

Commentary on Psalm 136:10-22
(Read Psalm 136:10-22)
The great things God did for Israel, when he brought them out of Egypt, were mercies which endured long to them; and our redemption by Christ, which was typified thereby, endures for ever. It is good to enter into the history of God's favours, and in each to observe, and own, that his mercy endureth for ever. He put them in possession of a good land; it was a figure of the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ.
