The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 30:1-10

The restoration of the Jews. So certain is the apostasy and the judgment on the land, that Moses assumes it as an accomplished fact, thereupon proceeding to predict a restoration of the "scattered nation" in case of their repentance. There must be the penitent return to God, and then God will restore them and bless them abundantly. It was this principle which was carried out in the restoration from Babylon, and which will be carried out in any future restoration of Israel. We have here the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 30:4-5

Consequent on this deliverance would be the gathering of Israel from all the places of the dispersion and their return to possess the land which their fathers possessed, in greater numbers than their fathers were. This last statement suggests doubt as to the literal interpretation of this prediction, for, as Keil remarks, "If there is to be an increase in the num-bet of the Jews when gathered out of their dispersion into all the world, above the number of their fathers, and therefore above the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 30:6

The Lord will circumcise thine heart ; "when thou wilt become better, God will help thereto (cf. Deuteronomy 10:16 )" (Herxheimer). When Israel should return to the Lord, he would take away from them the evil heart of unbelief, and give them the new heart and the right spirit. " Qui pravis affectibus renunciat is circumcisus corde dicitur " (Rosenmüller. Cf. Jeremiah 31:33 ; Jeremiah 32:39 ; Ezekiel 11:19 , etc.; Ezekiel 36:26 ; Romans 2:29 ; Colossians 2:11 ). read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 30:6

(comp. with Jeremiah 30:1-24 :31-34, and Hebrews 8:6 ).— The old and new covenants. It may not be uninstructive at this stage of homiletic teaching upon this book, to place on record the points of comparison and of contrast between the old and new covenants; i . e . between the covenant made through Moses and that propounded and sealed through the Lord Jesus Christ. I. LET US NOTE THE POINTS OF COMPARISON . 1. Both are made with a people formed for God ( ... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Deuteronomy 30:1-10

The rejection of Israel and the desolation of the promised inheritance were not to be the end of God’s dispensations. The closing words of the address therefore are words of comfort and promise. Compare marginal reference and Deuteronomy 4:29 ff; 1 Kings 8:46-50.The chastisements of God would lead the nation to repent, and thereupon God would again bless them.Deuteronomy 30:3Will turn thy captivity - Will change or put an end to thy state of captivity or distress (compare Psalms 14:7; Psalms... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Deuteronomy 30:5

Deuteronomy 30:5. He will do thee good, and multiply thee above thy fathers There are in this and several other prophecies concerning the restoration of the Jews, such magnificent descriptions of it as do by no means appear to have been sufficiently fulfilled in any restoration yet past; and therefore are to be accomplished in a more complete one yet to come, after their conversion, in principle and practice, to true Christianity. read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Deuteronomy 30:6

Deuteronomy 30:6. And the Lord Or, For the Lord; will circumcise thy heart Will by his word and Spirit change and purge thy heart from all thy idolatry and wickedness, and incline thy heart to love him. God will first convert and sanctify thee, the fruit whereof shall be, that thou shalt return and obey God’s commandments, (Deuteronomy 30:8,) and then shalt prosper in all things, Deuteronomy 30:9. This promise principally respects the times of the gospel, and still remains to be... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 30:1-20

The covenant renewed (29:1-30:20)Israel’s lack of understanding of God and his ways meant that the people needed constant reminders of the covenant’s purpose, meaning and requirements. Moses gave them such a reminder in this his farewell address to the nation, acting as God’s representative in the renewal of the covenant as he had done at the establishment of the covenant at Sinai (Horeb) (29:1-9). The renewed oath of allegiance that the people swore before entering Canaan was binding on future... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Deuteronomy 30:6

"And Jehovah thy God will circumcise thy heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love Jehovah thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live. And Jehovah thy God will put all these curses upon thine enemies, and on them that hate thee, that persecuted thee. And thou shalt return and obey the voice of Jehovah, and do all his commandments, which I command thee this day. And Jehovah thy God will make thee plenteous, in all the work of thy hand, in the fruit of thy body, and... read more
