申命記 10:12-14 JC

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 10:12-13

God had showed great favor to Israel; what return did he require? Only what, without any prescription, they were bound to render—fear, love, and obedience (comp. Micah 6:8 ). To fear the Lord thy God (cf. Deuteronomy 6:2 , Deuteronomy 6:13 ). To walk in all his ways ; to receive his truth, accept his law, and follow the course of conduct which he prescribes (cf. Genesis 18:19 ; Psalms 25:4 , Psalms 25:5 ; Psalms 67:2 ; Acts 18:25 , Acts 18:26 ). To love him (cf. Exodus... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 10:12-13

The supreme requirement. With this Moses began ( Deuteronomy 6:4 ), and with this he ends. The sum of the Law, and the sum of all his exhortations. It all and always comes back to this ( Ecclesiastes 12:13 ): "What doth the Lord require of thee?" etc. We have here: 1. The central requirement. 2. The all-embracing requirement. 3. The indispensable requirement; that for which nothing else can be accepted as a substitute. 4. The requirement of kindness— "for thy... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 10:12-16

Israel's duty summed up and touchingly enforced. The rehearsal and review of Israel's waywardness, in which the great lawgiver had been reminding the people how much God had had to bear with from them, must have been extremely painful to him, as it was reproachful for them. That part of the review closes with the eleventh verse. And then follows thereon one of the most tender and touching appeals to which the old man could give vent. The two first words of the twelfth verse," And now,"... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 10:12-22

Knowledge of God the parent of obedient faith. Every honest view we take of God's service brings to light fresh features of attractiveness. It is the only right course. It satisfies conscience, reason, affection, desire. Having right dispositions and purposes in life, all larger knowledge of God makes service pleasant; yea, true service ministers to our best life. I. THE REASONABLENESS OF GOD 'S SERVICE HAY RE DEDUCED FROM THE PERFECTION OF HIS CHARACTER . ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 10:14-15

To love and serve the Lord, Israel was specially bound, because of God's love to them and choice of them to be his people. He, the Lord and Proprietor of the universe, was free to choose any of the nations he pleased, and needed not the service of any, but of his free grace he chose Israel, in whose fathers he had delight, to love them (cf. Exodus 19:5 ). The heaven and the heaven of heavens ; the highest heavens, all that may be called heaven, with all that it contains. Delight ("set... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 10:14-22

The supreme persuasive. The revelation of God's character in its double aspect of exalted might and of condescending grace. I. GOD EXALTED , YET STOOPING . ( Deuteronomy 10:14-16 .) The wonder of revelation: 1. That One so exalted should stoop at all . The wonder is not abated by reflecting that infinite perfection must include infinite mercy with every other attribute. It fills us with amazement to think of the Possessor of heaven and earth stooping to hold friendly... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Deuteronomy 10:12

After these emphatic warnings against self-righteousness the principal topic is resumed from Deuteronomy 6:0, and this division of the discourse is drawn to a conclusion in the next two chapters by a series of direct and positive exhortations to a careful fulfillment of the duties prescribed in the first two of the Ten “Words.”Deuteronomy 10:12What doth the Lord thy God require ... - A noteworthy demand. God has in the Mosaic law positively commanded many things. However, these relate to... read more

Deuteronomy 10:12. What doth he require? By way of duty and gratitude for such amazing mercies? But to fear the Lord thy God, &c. When Jehovah is our God in Christ, pacified toward us after all we have done, and has received us for his adopted children, then, and not before, are we qualified to comply with his will as here enjoined, to love as well as fear him, and to walk in all his ways, yea, to serve him, as it is here expressed, with all our heart and all our soul. For... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 10:12-22

What God demands of Israel (10:12-11:32)In summary, Moses’ instruction to Israel as a people was that they were to fear, obey, love and serve God, in the assurance that he desired only their good (12-13). He had chosen them in mercy, and he wanted them likewise to show mercy to others. They were to have humble purity of heart and genuine love, both in their relations with him and in their relations with others (14-20). They were not to be arrogant or boastful, but were to remember their humble... read more
