The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 5:2-3

Not with our fathers , the patriarchs (cf. Deuteronomy 4:37 .) The covenant to which Moses refers is not that made with Abraham, but that made at Sinai, with Israel as a people; and though the individuals who were then present had all perished with the exception of Moses, Joshua, and Caleb, the nation survived, and as it was with the nation as an organic whole that the covenant had been made. it might be with propriety said that it was made with those whom Moses addressed at this time,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 5:2-3

The covenant at Horeb. Here spoken of as distinct from the older covenant made with the patriarchs ( Genesis 15:1-21 ; Genesis 17:1-27 .). I. ITS RELATIONS TO THE COVENANT MADE WITH THE FATHERS , It was not a new thing absolutely. It rested on that older covenant, and on the series of revelations which sprang out of it. It could not disannul that older covenant ( Galatians 3:17 ). It could not run counter to it ( Galatians 3:21 ). It must, though "superadded,"... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 5:4-5

The Lord talked with you face to face . God spoke to them immediately, in their presence and to their face, from the mount, as one person might to another. There is a slight difference in form between the phrase here and that in Exodus 33:11 and Deuteronomy 34:10 , where it is used in reference to Moses, but it is so slight ( בְּפָּנִים instead of אֶל־פָּנִים ) that no difference of meaning can be elicited. God spake directly to the people, as he did to Moses, only Moses was... read more

Albert Barnes

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Deuteronomy 5:3

The “fathers” are, as in Deuteronomy 4:37, the patriarchs, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. With them God did indeed make a covenant, but not the particular covenant now in question. The responsibilites of this later covenant, made at Sinai by the nation as a nation, attached in their day and generation to those whom Moses was addressing. read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Deuteronomy 5:3

Deuteronomy 5:3. The Lord made not this covenant with our fathers That is, with our remote progenitors, with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, but with us, their descendants: or if it be understood as spoken of their immediate parents, it means, according to the Hebrew idiom, Not with our fathers only, but with us also, as Genesis 32:28, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel; that is, not only Jacob, but Israel, or Israel preferably to Jacob. Moses might truly say, God made... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Deuteronomy 5:4

Deuteronomy 5:4. The Lord talked with you face to face Personally and immediately, and not by the mouth or ministry of Moses; plainly and certainly, as when two men speak face to face; freely and familiarly, so as not to overwhelm and confound you. It may also signify that they beheld a conspicuous symbol of the divine presence, and heard a divine voice speaking from thence clearly and distinctly. read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 5:1-33

4:44-11:32 BASIC REQUIREMENTS OF THE COVENANTIn the address just concluded, Moses outlined God’s dealings with Israel in the past, and on the basis of this urged Israel to be obedient in the future. He now called a second meeting, this time to ‘renew’ the covenant, not in the ceremonial sense but in the practical sense. That is, he reawakened the people to their responsibilities under the covenant. He recalled the events when the covenant was made at Sinai (4:44-5:5), he repeated the basic... read more
