Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Deuteronomy 32:39-43

This conclusion of the song speaks three things: I. Glory to God, Deut. 32:39. ?See now upon the whole matter, that I, even I, am he. Learn this from the destruction of idolaters, and the inability of their idols to help them.? The great God here demands the glory, 1. Of a self-existence: I, even I, am he. Thus Moses concludes with that name of God by which he was first made to know him (Exod. 3:14), ?I am that I am. I am he that I have been, that I will be, that I have promised to be, that I... read more

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Deuteronomy 32:44-52

Here is, I. The solemn delivery of this song to the children of Israel, Deut. 32:44, 45. Moses spoke it to as many as could hear him, while Joshua, in another assembly, at the same time, delivered it to as many as his voice would reach. Thus coming to them from the mouth of both their governors, Moses who was laying down the government, and Joshua who was taking it up, they would see they were both in the same mind, and that, though they changed their commander, there was no change in the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 32:41

If I whet my glittering sword ,.... That is, I will do it as sure as I live, if I do not, be it so and so; what that is is not said, but left to be concluded. A glittering sword is a sword drawn, the blade of it drawn out of the scabbard, cleaned and polished, whetted and made sharp, that it may more easily penetrate and pierce; and this, being brandished, glitters like lightning, as the word used signifies. Whetting the sword is a preparation for doing execution with it; and is a warning, a... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 32:42

I will make mine arrows drunk with blood ,.... Signifying, that by various judgments he would bring upon them, which, like arrows, would come suddenly, fly swiftly, and pierce deeply, there would be a prodigious effusion of blood like that in Revelation 14:20 ; so that these arrows, which cause it, being plunged and soaked, and covered in it, may be said to be inebriated with it, just as the sword is said to be bathed and filled with blood, Isaiah 34:5 ; which prophecy respects the same... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 32:43

Rejoice, O ye nations, with his people ,.... Or, "rejoice, ye nations", who are "his" people; so Kimchi and Ben Melech interpret it; the Gentiles, who are the Lord's chosen and covenant people, redeemed and called, and the fulness of them now brought in, and so matter of great rejoicing; or rather, as the Septuagint, which is approved and confirmed by the Apostle Paul, "rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people", Romans 15:10 ; and as it is there applied to the then state of the Christian... read more

And Moses came ,.... To the people, as the Greek version, the heads of the people being gathered together according to his order, Deuteronomy 31:28 ; The Targum of Jonathan says, he came from the tabernacle, the house of instruction: and spake all the words of this song in the ears of the people ; which is observed both before and after the reading of it, to show the certainty of it, and how punctually and faithfully he had delivered it: he, and Hoshea the son of Nun ; the same... read more

And he said unto them ,.... By way of exhortation: set your hearts to all the words which I testify among you this day ; it was not enough to hear them, but they were to lay them up in their hearts, and retain them in their memories; and not only so, but reflect on them in their minds, and closely apply to the consideration of them, and get the true knowledge and sense of them, and put it in practice: which ye shall command your children to observe, to do all the words of this law ;... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 32:47

For it is not a vain thing for you ,.... That is, the law is not, and the observance of it in them and their children; it was no light and trifling matter, but of great importance and consequence, obedience to it being attended with rewards, and disobedience with punishment: because it is your life : if obeyed, the means of a comfortable and happy life, in the enjoyment of all good things, of the preservation and continuance of it to a length of time; and long life was always... read more

And the Lord spake unto Moses the selfsame day ,.... On which he finished the reading of the law, and the above song, which was the seventh of Adar or February; according to the Targum of Jonathan, the day he died on; according to the Egyptian Calendar F1 Apud Ludolf. Lex. Ethiop. p. 537. , it was the sixteenth of that month, see Deuteronomy 34:5 , saying ; as follows. read more
