Context of Isaiah 63:10
8For He said, “Surely they are My people, children who will not deal falsely.” So He became their Savior. 9In all their affliction He was afflicted. So the angel of His presence saved them. In His love and in His mercy He redeemed them, then He lifted them and carried them all the days of old. But they rebelled, and grieved His Ruach ha-Kodesh. So He turned to become their enemy. He Himself fought against them. 11Then His people remembered the days of old, the days of Moses: “Where is He who brought them through the sea with the shepherd of His flock? Where is He who put among them His Ruach ha-Kodesh? 12Who caused His glorious arm to go at the right hand of Moses? Who divided the waters before them— to make Himself a Name forever?
