Context of Deuteronomy 9:24

22Moreover, you continued to provoke the Lord at Taberah, Massah, and Kibroth-Hattaavah. 23And when he sent you from Kadesh-Barnea and told you, “Go up and possess the land I have given you,” you rebelled against the Lord your God and would neither believe nor obey him. You have been rebelling against him from the very first day I knew you! 25I lay flat on the ground before the Lord for forty days and nights, for he had said he would destroy you. 26I prayed to him: O, Lord God, do not destroy your people, your valued property that you have powerfully redeemed, whom you brought out of Egypt by your strength.

It is good for us often to remember against ourselves, with sorrow and shame, our former sins; that we may see how much we are indebted to free grace, and may humbly own that we never merited any thing but wrath and the curse at God's hand…Read the comment
