Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Deuteronomy 27:11-26

Compare Joshua 8:32-35. The solemnity was apparently designed only for the single occasion on which it actually took place.Deuteronomy 27:12, Deuteronomy 27:13The tribes appointed to stand on Gerizim to bless the people all sprang from the two wives of Jacob, Leah and Rachel. All the four tribes which sprang from the handmaids Zilpah and Bilhah are located on Ebal. But in order, as it would seem, to effect an equal division, two tribes are added to the latter from the descendants of the wives,... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 27:1-26

27:1-30:20 CONDITIONS OF THE COVENANTThe listing of blessings and curses at the end of the covenant document is again in keeping with the form of ancient Near Eastern treaties. God in his sovereign grace had chosen Israel as his people and preserved them. In gratitude the people were to be obedient to God’s commands, and in doing so they would enjoy fellowship with him and blessing in their national life. Disobedience, on the other hand, would bring his judgment upon them, so that they might... read more

B. The curses that follow disobedience to specific stipulations 27:14-26This is the first of two sections of curses (cf. Deuteronomy 28:15-68) that sandwich one section of blessings (Deuteronomy 28:1-14). The present group of curses explains the consequences of disobedience to specific stipulations of the covenant whereas the second group of curses clarifies the consequences of disobedience to general stipulations of the covenant.The twelve curses that a group of Levites was to repeat probably... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 27:1-26

Ceremonies to be observed on reaching CanaanThis chapter has probably been misplaced, as it seems to break the connexion between Deuteronomy 26 and Deuteronomy 28. It ordains four ceremonies to be observed after the people have entered Canaan: the Law to be written on stones on Mt. Ebal: an altar to be erected there: the covenant ratified on Ebal and Gerizim: and twelve curses pronounced by the Levites.1. Elders] Elsewhere the elders are addressed along with the people. Here they are associated... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Deuteronomy 27:16

(16) Cursed be he that setteth light.—The first curse points to the first two commandments of the first table, and the second to the first commandment in the second table. If we mark off the first offence specified, secret idolatry—the only one which distinctly recalls the first commandment of the Law, and also the last general curse which embraces all transgression whatever, the intervening offences seem more easily arranged. We have duty to parents enforced (Deuteronomy 27:16) and the rights... read more

MOSES’ FAREWELL SPEECHESDeuteronomy 4:1-40, Deuteronomy 27:1-26; Deuteronomy 28:1-68; Deuteronomy 29:1-29; Deuteronomy 30:1-20.WITH the twenty-sixth chapter the entirely homogeneous central portion of the Book of Deuteronomy ends, and it concludes it most worthily. It prescribes two ceremonies which are meant to give solemn expression to the feeling of thankfulness which the love of God, manifested in so many laws and precepts, covering the commonest details of life, should have made the... read more

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Deuteronomy 27:1-26

23. The Memorial of the Law at Mount Ebal; Gerizim and Ebal CHAPTER 27 1. The memorial to be set up in the land (Deuteronomy 27:1-8 ) 2. Gerizim and Ebal (Deuteronomy 27:9-26 ) Little comment is needed on this chapter. The memorial stones were to be set up on Mount Ebal. Upon that mountain the curses of the law were to be uttered. The blessings were to be pronounced upon Mount Gerizim. However, on Gerizim were no stones with the law written upon it. How strikingly this illustrates the... read more
