What Does Psalms 105:37 Mean?
The plagues forced Egyptians to give Israel silver and gold—not stealing but forced compensation and supplication. The departing Israel was enriched by Egypt, reversing their status from enslaved and impoverished to prosperous. God used Egypt's terror to provide for his people's journey.
Not one feeble person among their tribes—despite 430 years of slavery, Israel departed strong and healthy. This detail emphasizes God's protective blessing even during bondage. The nation suffered slavery but not physical degeneration. They were ready for the wilderness journey ahead.
