If we have seen the object of all this part of Deuteronomy to be the enforcement of obedience, there is nothing which maintains obedience so much as redemption; and if that were the case when it was only an outward deliverance, how much more when it is eternal? 2). iii. We recognize that a part of the wilderness experience was legitimate. There he kept them about a year, and then told them they had dwelt long enough there, they must go forward. Moses began his recital of Israels history at Horeb (Sinai) because this is where Yahweh adopted the nation by making the Mosaic Covenant with her. 2). So the commandment of God; "you've been here long enough, you've circled this mountain long enough". The mount of blessing and the mount of curse were there on the other side Jordan.

He cites from none other. The greater the blessing of God, the more thoroughly you are put on the ground that God has given you, the more He insists on thorough and constant obedience. This becomes the centre for all; and the book of Deuteronomy is founded on that fact, Israel being on the Point of entering into the land. Rekam, and that Double. It is not a book for the wilderness, except for their hearts to look back on whilst on the borders before they entered the land. That is the point to do God's will. Pray it during the day too.

The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come, and unto Him the people shall adhere." However Judea, here and there, doth swell out much with mountains, yet its chief swelling appears in that broad back of mountains, that runs from the utmost southern cost as far as Hebron, and almost as Jerusalem itself. He's looking now outside of himself for the help. But in Deuteronomy the point is to centralize them all around Jehovah Himself. It seems probable to us that the record in Exodus is the more exact. Where the world or the flesh governs, the trial is not felt. It represented that death which befell the Lamb, and arrested the judgment of God which had gone out against us because of sin. Thus, after God's controversy with them on account of the golden calf, the first and surest sign of God's being reconciled to them was the renewing of the tables. Our mind will be upon the fleshly things continually; What shall we eat? "O wretched man that I am who shall deliver me?" 3 And it came to pass in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, that Moses spake unto the children of Israel, according unto all that the LORD had given him in commandment unto them; 4 After he had slain Sihon the king of the Amorites, which dwelt in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, which dwelt at Astaroth in Edrei: 5 On this side Jordan, in the land of Moab, began Moses to declare this law, saying, 6 The LORD our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount: 7 Turn you, and take your journey, and go to the mount of the Amorites, and unto all the places nigh thereunto, in the plain, in the hills, and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea side, to the land of the Canaanites, and unto Lebanon, unto the great river, the river Euphrates. Help me to be courageous in the face of my enemies. and all this kind of stuff.Well, it's obvious God didn't lead him. (Exodus 20:1; Deuteronomy 5:22. Yet he discourses not to them concerning military affairs, the arts and stratagems of war, but concerning their duty to God; for, if they kept themselves in his fear and favour, he would secure to them the conquest of the land: their religion would be their best policy. iv. Moses recounts for them the history of what had taken place before as a warning not to repeat the same mistakes. There was no doubt whatever that Esau had behaved so ill that the children of Israel were not likely to forget it. In the Temple at the Feast of Tabernacles. They did not have a personal memory of the horrible bondage in Egypt. Still more since Christ: misused ordinances are practically the same thing in principle, asGalatians 4:1-31; Galatians 4:1-31 teaches. In short, whatever it be to which God summons us is precisely what the devil endeavours to obscure, and so to hinder our testimony. In fact He acted as the landlord. "( Romans 6:6 ) Paul the apostle said, "I am crucified with Christ" ( Galatians 2:20 ). perhaps the more appropriate translation is the one that points to the exclusive demand of this God to be the only God Israel acknowledges and worships (5:6 See also Exodus 20:2). ^b 12 And ^a 18 Now ^b on the morrow [on the Monday following the triumphal entry], ^a in the morning ^b when they were come out from Bethany, ^a as he returned to the city [Jerusalem], he hungered. You may not possess all of your possessions and yet, if you spend your life roaming in the wilderness it's not God's will, it's not his desire, but he will be with you there and help you there. We see that what has been remarked is just what is expressed in this verse: "And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only," (what exercise of faith was there in that?) There He assigned this as the portion of the high priest and his sons, that of the Levites, this again of the people. We need further insight to think the right way and make right life decisions. "Because God hates us he brought us out here to kill us in the wilderness", when in reality God loved them and wanted to give them a land that they might dwell in, that it might be their land. This was the substantial meaning of the tithes and other requisitions (ver. p. 136 (Pitman's Edition). 94.]. In such a case there is no room for will, nor sparing of the heart. We're always the one that put the restrictions upon what God can do for us. Such moral motives as are added are therefore as appropriate in Deuteronomy as they could not, ought not to, be in Exodus. It is founded on the life of Christ in resurrection, when the Holy Ghost brings us into the power of enjoyment. In Deuteronomy 11:1-32 is given the summing up of the whole matter, the practical conclusion which the lawgiver keeps before their eyes. our brethren have discouraged our heart, saying, The people is greater and taller than we.". Hence, while he fails not to show that Jehovah was with himself, and how Joshua was to displace him, he does not hesitate to set before all the story of his own shame, so to speak. They were about to go into the land to enjoy it; but "Hear, O Israel: Jehovah our God is one. "Behold, I have taught you statutes and judgments, even as Jehovah my God commanded me, that ye should do so in the land whither ye go to possess it. Now it was God's desire all along to bring them into the land. * So difficult is it to unbelief that some take the ground of making Deuteronomy belong to an older age when the distinction of priests from Levites was not yet brought in. 7-9). When we compare, for instance, the way in which Moses, under the direction of God, was to lead on the Israelites, and the way in which Mahomet perverted the word into a fable for ambitious ends, and allowance of human lusts and passions, who cannot see the difference? But you are the one that puts the limitations on what God wants to do. The prime duty for every creature, whether Jew or Christian, is obedience. In His dealings with them He applied a higher standard, and far more severity. The evil that I would not, that I do"( Romans 7:19 ). But the second feast brings out joy in a very distinct and delightful manner. This was the mount that burned with fire (Hebrews 12:18), and gendered to bondage,Galatians 4:24. Thus does dying Jacob, in announcing. Moses reminds them how he had shared the burden of care for them with others. 7). 367.). The Lord puts no weapon of a kind to injure any into our hands; but bids us leave vengeance with himself.

They have been camped out at Mount Horeb for about a year. The first of all rights, and the highest of our duties, is that God should have His rights. Who went in the way before you, to search you out a place to pitch your tents, in the fire by night, to show you by what way you should go, and the cloud by day ( Deuteronomy 1:33 ). O. T. i. It is well to remark here that verse 24 is exactly parallel with verse 13; that it is not Moses in verse 13, but Jehovah who commands to "rise up," etc., in both; and that verses 10-12 are a parenthesis of instructive past history for moral profit like verses 20-23. - J.O. Conceive the state of mind which could say that "in Deuteronomy Moses repeatedly lays the blame of his expulsion on the people (Deuteronomy 1:37; Deuteronomy 3:26; Deuteronomy 4:21); but according toNumbers 20:12; Numbers 20:12 God punished him thus for not believing Him, while inNumbers 27:14; Numbers 27:14 his punishment was occasioned by the legislator's own disobedience"! This is the meaning of it, and such is precisely the path of duty. In style similar to that of ancient treaty documents, Deuteronomy opens by recounting all that Yahweh, Israels covenant God, has done for his people. India, China, Africa, etc., - he knows them all, yet he says, "Go in and possess.". Of Kadesh, or Rekam, in the south part, there is no doubt. But the motive here is not because God rested upon that day, but because they were to remember that they were servants in the land of Egypt, and that Jehovah had brought them out through a mighty hand, and by a stretched out arm: "Therefore Jehovah thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath-day." Obedience is the claim. What have I to ask beside? In Deuteronomy 15:1-23 we find a similar principle as to the year of release. O. T. i. p. 235) ventures to set portions of this chapter in juxtaposition with two from elsewhere, in order to show that God's speaking to the inspired writer was simply his own mind and conscience enlightened from on high. "But Sihon," it is said, "king of Heshbon, would not let us pass by him: for Jehovah thy God hardened his spirit, and made his heart obstinate, that he might deliver him into thy hand, as appeareth this day. There must be times of getting, of learning, of consulting for one's own edification, else it will go hard with us in the work and battle of life. 1:6-7. In Deuteronomy 12:1-32 we have statutes and judgments. Surely this again makes it too plain to call for many words of ours to demonstrate what Moses, or rather God Himself, has in view in all these chapters. "Now therefore hearken, O Israel, unto the statutes and unto the judgments which I teach you, for to do them, that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which the Jehovah God of your fathers giveth you. They hesitated and by staying outside of the land, they were not obeying God's instructions. The people of Israel had nearly completed their 40 years of wandering in the wilderness. He was a descendant of Aaron, and belonged to one of the wealthiest and most influential families among the Jewish merchant-princes of Egypt. 18, 19, 12, 13; ^B Mark XI.

There is thus a presentation of a faithful God, whose demand was for a faithful people." So it was done; but it is added that, when they did depart from Horeb and went through the wilderness, "which ye saw by the way of the mountain of the Amorites, I said unto you, Ye are come unto the mountain of the Amorites, which Jehovah our God doth give unto us. Look at the way in which Jehovah treated even these enemies of Israel. And I cannot bring my flesh into conformity unto God. Consequently there is here a heavy blow struck at the tendency towards idolatry. iii. It is a different thing however with the book of Deuteronomy; and this was my reason for remarking it at this point. These bear chiefly the character of logical deductions, and as such were largely applied in the Halakhah. 2. "I will not give you of their land." This is constantly forgotten when men talk about the moral law. This was their real object. But there is no discrepancy whatever, nor confusion of Aaron's death in the last year of the wilderness sojourn with the separation of Levi some thirty-eight years before. 8 Behold, I have set the land before you: go in and possess the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give unto them and to their seed after the. "Judah, thou, thy brethren shall praise thee; thy hand shall be on the neck of thine enemies; before thee shall bow down the sons of thy father. He that believes may calmly confide in God under all circumstances. In Jesus' name I pray, AMEN. Ver. It was simply a question of subjection to God and obeying Him, who had from the first a plan for the nations round Israel as their centre. It was no longer "How shall I free myself?" Israel was called in everything to confide in Jehovah and obey. Will-worship is intolerable. He lost patience with them and in so doing brought Gods punishment upon himself (34-40; see Numbers 20:2-13). And thou shalt roast and eat it in the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose; and thou shalt turn in the morning, and go unto thy tents.".

In other words, he is saying that God went before you through the wilderness to search for the best place for you to pitch your tent and then led you by the fire and by the cloud.Oh, if we only realized how all encompassing the work of God is that surrounds our lives. Moses says, "We turned," not "Ye," merely. It was because of this very truth: Jehovah was with them. It is strange how little we know of the personal history of the greatest of uninspired Jewish writers of old, though he occupied so prominent a position in his time. 4; Isa. O. T. i. pp. What did not so much manifest obedience is left out, though it might have an important spiritual meaning in its place; for certainly other feasts (as the feast of atonement, for instance) had. 2. The heart may be made up to follow the Lord, but the difficulties are still felt keenly; whereas the man who only theorises is ready in his own conceit, in word at least, to do anything; but there is no seriousness of spirit: he does not know himself yet. It is not the death of Christ with all its solemn, however blessed, issues. "Is He then indeed your Father?" The other whom Jesus called thought about his father and mother; he would like to see them first. The broader character of the book, with its aim of bringing forward the people, and consequently the tribal divisions, rather than particular families, fully accounts for this. How good is the Lord! Therefore we can understand it as if He said, When you were in the strange country, when you left it in haste to wander here and there in the wilderness, there were great difficulties and many irregularities which cannot be allowed now. However Judea, here and there, doth swell out much with mountains, yet its chief swelling appears in that broad back of mountains, that runs from the utmost southern cost as far as Hebron, and almost as Jerusalem itself. 5. At the same time we are told how the tribe of Levi was separated, after having brought in (in an episodical way) an allusion to Aaron's death. And the beautiful thing is that God is with you, even in the wilderness experiences. Setting up other gods in the wilderness. Not so. 3) and dwelling in inaccessible light (1 Tim. Plainly then the savage knows quite well that it is unjustifiable to steal. However the "strife" (Deuteronomy 1:12) of the people would prove to be their undoing. It is the design of the book which governs the description in each case. ( Romans 7:24 ). Not surprisingly, they were defeated and driven back into the wilderness (41-46). Genesis 39: 2-6. For a Jew no doubt there is the law of Moses. Therefore shall ye keep all the commandments which I command you this day, that ye may be strong, and go in and possess the land whither ye go to possess it; and that ye may prolong your days in the land which Jehovah sware unto your fathers to give unto them and to their seed, a land that floweth with milk and honey" (ver.
