The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 1:34-40

The excluded and the admitted. I. THE EXCLUDED . 1. That whole unbelieving generation , with two excerptions ( Deuteronomy 1:35 ). Note: 2. The holy Moses ( Deuteronomy 1:37 ; cf. on Deuteronomy 3:26 ; Deuteronomy 4:21 ; Deuteronomy 34:4 ).

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 1:34-46

The heirs of promise. We have in this passage the result of unbelief. The dread of the people was lest their little ones should become a prey to their gigantic foes in Canaan. The Lord now declares that these little ones shall be the possessors of the land, while they themselves shall be denied an entrance, since they refused it when offered to them. The only exceptions are to be Joshua and Caleb, who made the good report and gave the good counsel. Even Moses is included in the doom of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 1:35-36

They were all, the whole generation of them, evil, and therefore not a man of them should see the good land which God had promised to their fathers, with the exception of Caleb, who had wholly followed the Lord—had remained steadfast and faithful whilst the others fell away. Joshua also was exempted from this doom; but before mentioning him, Moses refers to himself as having also come under the Divine displeasure. read more

Deuteronomy 1:31-34. Bare thee Or carried thee, as a father carries his weak and tender child in his arms, through difficulties and dangers, gently leading you according as you were able to go, and sustaining you by his power and goodness.

Deuteronomy 1:36-37. Save Caleb Under whom Joshua is comprehended, though not here expressed, because he was not now to be one of the people, but to be set over them as a chief governor: we are also to except Eleazar and some other Levites.

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 1:1-46

1:1-4:43 HISTORICAL INTRODUCTIONIn style similar to that of ancient treaty documents, Deuteronomy opens by recounting all that Yahweh, Israel’s covenant God, has done for his people. It reminds them of his gracious acts on their behalf and calls from them a fitting response of covenant loyalty. The section summarizes events recorded in greater detail in Numbers 10:11-32:42.From Sinai to Kadesh (1:1-46)It was only eleven days’ journey from Mount Sinai to Kadesh-barnea, and about the same from... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Deuteronomy 1:34

"And Jehovah heard the voice of your words, and was wroth, and sware, saying, Surely there shall not one of these men of this evil generation see the good land, which I sware to give unto your fathers, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh; he shall see it; and to him will I give the land that he hath trodden upon, and to his children, because he hath wholly followed Jehovah. Also Jehovah was angry with me for your sakes, saying, Thou shalt not go in thither: Joshua the son of Nun, who standeth... read more
