Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 9:7-29

7-29 That the Israelites might have no pretence to think that God brought them to Canaan for their righteousness, Moses shows what a miracle of mercy it was, that they had not been destroyed in the wilderness. It is good for us often to remember against ourselves, with sorrow and shame, our former sins; that we may see how much we are indebted to free grace, and may humbly own that we never merited any thing but wrath and the curse at God's hand. For so strong is our propensity to pride, that... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Deuteronomy 9:7-29

Instances of Rebellious Behavior. In support of the term "stiff-necked people," which he had just applied to the children of Israel, Moses now adduces a few incidents from the wilderness journey. v. 7. Remember and forget not how thou provokedst the Lord, thy God, to wrath in the wilderness, their rebelliousness had been a constant challenge to the wrath of God; from the day that thou didst depart out of the land of Egypt until ye came unto this place ye have been rebellious against the... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Deuteronomy 9:1-14

Offending the Righteous God Deuteronomy 9:1-14 Who can read this chapter without emotion and admiration for its sublime eloquence! It is one of the most striking and moving chapters in this book! Moses sets himself to convince the people that they must not suppose that their easy entrance to Canaan was due to conspicuous virtue, but rather to God’s covenant with their fathers, and also to the sinful practices of the Canaanites. Compare Deuteronomy 9:5 with Genesis 15:16 . The contagion of... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Deuteronomy 9:1-29

It is interesting to note that as the final announcement of their approaching entrance to the land was made the difficulties which the people had faced at Kadesh-barnea were recognized as still confronting them, and they were shown that these difficulties were not difficulties to God. Moses also insisted that they were not being taken into the land because of their righteousness but as the instruments of God's government of the world. The truth so declared was further emphasized by a... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 9:13-19

Moses Now Reminds Them Of How Serious The Situation Had Been And How His Intercession Had Saved Them (Deuteronomy 9:13-19 ). Yahweh had been so affected by their sin that He had wanted to destroy them, and he offered instead to fulfil His promise to Abraham to give the land to his seed by raising up descendants to Moses. But Moses interceded for the people and Yahweh spared them for his sake. Analysis in the words of Moses: a Yahweh spoke to me, saying, “I have seen this people, and,... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 9:7-28

Deuteronomy 9:7 b– Deuteronomy 10:11 (or Deuteronomy 10:9). Narrative of the legislation on Mount Horeb; for the purpose apparently of illustrating Deuteronomy 9:7 a. This historical survey suddenly thrust into a hortatory context closely resembles Deuteronomy 1-3, and is thought by Horst and Bertholet to be by the same author. They agree with Steuernagel (who, however, says its closest affinities are with Deuteronomy 5) in holding it to be an interpolation here. But surely the history in... read more

Chuck Smith

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 9:1-29

As we have told you the word Deuteronomy means the second law. It is really a rehearsal, sort of a capsulation by Moses of the law that was given. Deuteronomy itself, though it covers the forty years from Egypt to the entering in of the Promised Land, covered only about forty days, as far as the time of it being given to the children of Israel.Moses was now an aging man, however he was still very spry. He still had excellent eyesight, excellent hearing, none of his forces had abated. Sometimes... read more
