He brought them out, after he had shown wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red Sea, and in the wilderness forty years.

2. He was able to lead them through the wilderness, to Mount Sinai, and toward the promised land of Canaan.

3. Because of their unbelief, they spent 40 years in the wilderness. Exactly in the territory Moses spent the previous 40 years looking for water for sheep, he was now able to lead millions of people to places of food and water.
