The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 33:6-25

Watchwords for the tribes. The blessings authoritatively pronounced by these old worthies amounted to watchwords for their future development. They were divinely suggested ideas regarding their future courses. We shall look at the ideals thus presented in their order. I. THE UNOSTENTATIOUS DEVELOPMENT OF REUBEN . Deposed from the primacy among the brethren, because of his self-indulgence, he is to content himself with pastoral progress amid the mountains of Moab. The blessing... read more

Benjamin and Joseph. The name given to one of these sons of Rachel ( Deuteronomy 33:12 ) would apply to both—"Beloved of the Lord." I. WHOM GOD CHOOSES TO PRESERVE NO FOE CAN INJURE . Benjamin would dwell in safety as between the shoulders of Jehovah ( Deuteronomy 33:12 ). The Lord would cover him all the day long. This is true of every good man. No power can separate him from God's love. No enemy can reach him to harm him ( Psalms 121:1-8 .). Christ's sheep are... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 33:13-17

The blessing on Joseph by Moses closely resembles that pronounced by Jacob on his favorite son; he solicits for him the utmost abundance of temporal blessing, and the riches of the Divine favor. There is this difference, however, between the two blessings, that in that of the patriarch it is the growth of the tribe in power and might that is chiefly contemplated; whilst in that of Moses it is the advance of the tribe in wealth, prosperity, and influence that is chiefly indicated. "Jacob... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 33:13-17

The blessing of Joseph; or, God's favor the mercy of mercies. We may see here a reflection of Jacob's blessing, both as in Genesis 48:19 and also Genesis 49:25 , et seq . In Dean Stanley's 'Sinai and Palestine,' pp. 226-250, there is much interesting information as to the correspondence between this prophecy of Moses on the one hand, and the extent of territory, the beauty and fertility of the district, the dignity, valor, and advance of the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh on the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 33:13-17

Royal donations on Joseph. It is instructive to observe with what loving ardor Moses speaks of Joseph. No sooner does he mention this name than his tongue, the ready servant of his heart, gives vent to a flood of eloquence. No good is too great to predict for Joseph. No benediction is too costly for him. The finest imagery that his fancy can invent is employed to foreshadow his greatness. The imagination of the dying saint fondly revels in the prospect of Joseph's prosperity and power.... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 33:16

The good will of him that dwelt in the bush. God chose a bush of the desert as the medium of his appearance to Moses ( Exodus 3:2 ), which, burning, was not consumed. A symbol: 1. Of Divine condescension . God stooping to dwell with men ( 1 Kings 8:27 ), using humble and despised instruments ( 1 Corinthians 2:1-16 :18-31; 2 Corinthians 4:7 ). The bush, "a neglected manifestation of God." 2. Of indwelling presence . A symbol of the Church, and of the individual... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Deuteronomy 33:13-17

Comparing the words of Moses with those of Jacob, it will be seen that the patriarch dwells with emphasis on the severe conflicts which Joseph, i. e., Ephraim and Manasseh, would undergo (compare Genesis 49:23-24); while the lawgiver seems to look beyond, and to behold the two triumphant and established in their power.Deuteronomy 33:17Rather: “The first-born of his” (i. e. Joseph’s) “bullock is his glory”: the reference being to Ephraim, who was raised by Jacob to the honors of the firstborn... read more

Deuteronomy 33:13-15. And of Joseph Including both Ephraim and Manasseh. In Jacob’s blessing, that of Joseph is the largest; and so it is here. His land His portion, shall be endowed with choice blessings from God. Of heaven That is, the precious fruits of the earth brought forth by the influences of heaven, the warmth of the sun, and the rain, which God will send from heaven. The deep The springs of water bubbling out of the earth: perhaps it may likewise refer to the great deep,... read more

Deuteronomy 33:16. And for the precious things of the earth And in general for all the choice fruits which the land produceth in all parts of it, whether hills or valleys. Fulness thereof That is, the plants, and cattle, and all creatures that grow, increase, and flourish in it.

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 33:1-29

The blessing of Moses (32:48-33:29)As God had announced earlier, the time for Moses to die had come (48-52; see Numbers 27:12-14). The prophetic blessings that he gave Israel before he died foresaw the favours that God would give the various tribes. But first Moses recalled the giving of the law at Sinai. God appeared in flaming majesty, bursting forth in glory brighter than the rising sun. Accompanying him were multitudes of heavenly servants who carry out God’s purposes in the lives of... read more
