What Does Psalms 105:26 Mean?
After centuries of bondage, God provided deliverers. Moses and Aaron are presented as 'sent'—commissioned by God for a specific mission. Moses is God's servant, the one through whom the law and the covenant structure would be given. Aaron, his brother, was chosen to be the priestly intermediary.
The parallel 'sent Moses' and 'whom he had chosen' emphasizes that both men came by God's deliberate action, not by human ambition. They were not self-appointed leaders but God's selected instruments for liberation and covenant renewal.
