8090. 'And it shall be as a sign on your hand' means that it shall be constantly in the will; 'and as frontlets between the eyes' means that it shall be constantly in the understanding; and 'for by strength of hand Jehovah brought us out of Egypt' means that they were delivered by the Lord's Divine power. These meanings are clear from the explanations at verse 9 of this chapter, where similar words occur, which are dealt with in 8066, 8067, 8069.
