Êxodo 3:8
And I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and a large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey; unto the place of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites.

'I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land to a good and broad land, a land flowing with milk and honey' — the burning bush theophany produces not only a divine name but a divine program: descent, liberation, and gift of land. The formula 'land flowing with milk and honey' (zevat chalav udevash) appears forty-four times in the Hebrew Bible and became the primary shorthand for the covenant land's abundance and fertility. The divine 'coming down' (yaradti) is theologically important: it establishes that liberation is not human achievement but divine initiative — a pattern the New Testament applies to the Incarnation. The list of Canaanite peoples to be displaced (verse 8b) sets the Exodus narrative within the complex framework of conquest theology that has been the subject of sustained ethical reflection throughout the tradition.
