Comentario sobre Deuteronómio 33:29
אַשְׁרֶ֨יךָ יִשְׂרָאֵ֜ל מִ֣י כָמ֗וֹךָ עַ֚ם נוֹשַׁ֣ע בַּֽיהוָ֔ה מָגֵ֣ן עֶזְרֶ֔ךָ וַאֲשֶׁר־חֶ֖רֶב גַּאֲוָתֶ֑ךָ וְיִכָּֽחֲשׁ֤וּ אֹיְבֶ֙יךָ֙ לָ֔ךְ וְאַתָּ֖ה עַל־בָּמוֹתֵ֥ימוֹ תִדְרֹֽךְ׃ (ס)
Bienaventurado tú, oh Israel, ¿Quién como tú, Pueblo salvo por SEÑOR, Escudo de tu socorro, Y espada de tu excelencia? Así que tus enemigos serán humillados, Y tú hollarás sobre sus alturas.
Rashi on Deuteronomy

Or HaChaim on Deuteronomy
אשריך ישראל…עם נושע בשם, "Fortunate are you, O Israel; …a nation delivered by the Lord." Whereas any wars the other nations are engaged in are fought by their protective angels, and each nation is afraid that the protective angel of its adversary may prevail unless G'd smites that angel, this does does not apply in the case of Israel whose "protective angel" is G'd Himself. -Compare Exodus 14,30 where the Torah describes the Israelites seeing the protective angel of Egypt dead, as explained by Shemot Rabbah 21,5. Israel is fortunate not to have to depend on intermediaries. This enables the Jewish people to be free from fear.
