So Abram went up out of Egypt, he and his wife and all that he had, and Lot [his nephew] with him, into the Negev (the South country of Judah).
Now Abram was extremely rich in livestock and in silver and in gold.
He journeyed on from the Negev as far as Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai,
And there was strife and quarreling between the herdsmen of Abram's cattle and the herdsmen of Lot's cattle. Now the Canaanite and the Perizzite were living in the land at that same time [making grazing of the livestock difficult].

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Yet I [am] the Lord thy God from the land of Egypt,.... Which brought thee out from thence, as the Targum; and ever since, from that time to this, had shown a regard unto them, as the Lord their God, both in the wilderness, as later mentioned, and in the land of Canaan, where they had been continued, and followed with instances of goodness to that day, and yet find sinned in so gross a manner; which argued great ingratitude in them, and forgetfulness of the Lord, and his mercies:
and thou shalt know no God but me; they ought to have known, acknowledged, and worshipped no other god, as was enjoined them in the law: or, "thou knowest not" b; they did not know any other, which they in their own consciences were obliged to confess, if appealed to; however, they should know no other; by sad experience they would find that there was no other that could be of any service to them; their images and idols being unable to help them:
for [there is] no saviour besides me; that could save them out of their troubles, and deliver them out of their distresses; no other that is, or can be, the author, either of temporal or of spiritual and eternal salvation.
b ×× ×ª××¢ "non novisti, [vel] cognovisti", Liveleus, Drusius, Rivet.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Yet - , (literally, and) I am the Lord thy God from the land of Egypt God was still the same God who had sheltered them with His providence, ever since He had delivered them from Egypt. He had the same power and will to help them. Therefore their duty was the same, and their destruction arose, not from any change in Him, but from themselves. âGod is the God of the ungodly, by creation and general providence.â
And thou shalt - (i. e., oughtest to) know no God but Me, for (literally, and) there is not a Saviour but me âTo be God and Lord and Saviour are incommunicable properties of God. Wherefore God often claimed these titles to Himself, from the time He revealed Himself to Israel. In the song of Moses, which they were commanded to rehearse, He says, âSee now that I, I am He, and there is no God with Me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal; neither is there any that can deliver out of My handâ Deuteronomy 32:39. Isaiah repeats this same, âIs there a God besides Me? yea there is no God; I know not anyâ Isaiah 44:8; and âThere is no God else besides Me, a just God and a Saviour; there is none else. Look unto Me and be ye saved, for I am God and there is none elseâ Isaiah 45:21, Isaiah 45:2; and, âI am the Lord, that is My Name; and My glory will I not give to another; neither My praise to graven imagesâ Isaiah 42:8. : âThat God and Saviour is Christ; God, because He created; Saviour, because, being made Man, He saved. Whence He willed to be called Jesus, i. e., Saviour. Truly âbesideâ Him, âthere is no Saviour; neither is there salvation in any other, for there is none other name under heaven, given among men, whereby we must be savedâ Acts 4:12. âIt is not enough to recognize in God this quality of a Saviour. It must not be shared with âany other.â Whoso associates with God any power whatever to decide on manâs salvation makes an idol, and introduces a new God.â
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Hosea 13:4. I am the Lord thy God — This was the first discovery I made of myself to you, and the first commandment I gave; and I showed you that besides me there was no Saviour. There is a remarkable addition in the Septuagint here: "But I am Jehovah thy God, who stretched out the heavens and created the earth. And I showed them not to thee, that thou shouldest walk after them. And I brought thee up out of the land of Egypt," &c. This might have been once in the Hebrew text.
