Expositor's Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 11:1-32

ISRAEL’S ELECTION, AND MOTIVES FOR FAITHFULNESSDeuteronomy 9:1-29; Deuteronomy 10:1-22; Deuteronomy 11:1-32THE remaining chapters of this special introduction to the statement of the actual laws beginning with chapter 12 contain also an earnest insistence upon other motives why Israel should remain true to the covenant of Yahweh. They are urged to this, not only because life both spiritual and physical depended upon it, as was shown in the trials of the wilderness, but they are also to lay it... read more

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Deuteronomy 11:1-32

Israel’s Responsibility, the Blessing and the Curse CHAPTER 11 1. Therefore thou shalt love the Lord thy God (Deuteronomy 11:1-9 ) 2. If ye hearken unto my commandments (Deuteronomy 11:10-21 ) 3. The blessing and the curse (Deuteronomy 11:22-32 ) The great characteristic teaching of this book, obedience springing from love to Jehovah, is still further developed in this chapter. It begins with a “therefore.” The last verse of the previous chapter shows that Jehovah had kept the promise... read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 11:1-32

SOWING AND REAPING (vs.1-32) This chapter emphasizes the results of obedience in contrast to the consequences of disobedience. It begins with the commandment to love the Lord their God, which of course is the motivating power for keeping God's statutes (v.1). Yet, though told many times to love the Lord, Israel did not respond to this. For love cannot be legislated, as Israel learned by experience. It must be spontaneous and voluntary. The New Testament makes this clear, "We love Him because... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 11:1-32

WARNING AND EXHORTATIONS OBEDIENCE (Deuteronomy 7:0 ) What were the names of the seven nations of Canaan to be cast out for their iniquity (Deuteronomy 7:1 )? Who would cast them out, and in what manner is the supernatural character of the act emphasized? Nevertheless, what illustrates the divine use of means (Deuteronomy 7:2 )? What command is laid on the Israelites in the premises (Deuteronomy 7:2-3 )? And why (Deuteronomy 7:4 )? To what extent should their zeal be exhibited, and why... read more

Joseph Parker

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Deuteronomy 11:1-32

Educated Towards Spirituality Deuteronomy 10-11 How to introduce the spiritual element into all this instruction of an external and formal kind was the difficulty even of inspiration. We have felt all along that the speeches and instructions delivered to Israel meant, as to their purpose and issue, something that was not expressed. We now come to find an indication of that which is intensely spiritual. The method of its introduction is so it may be said, with reverence infinitely skilled.... read more

Robert Hawker

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Deuteronomy 11:18-21

I have often admired the LORD'S affectionate regard to the happiness of Israel, as set forth in these precepts, and have figured to myself the Jewish family following up the command of the LORD, in forming around them their little circle, to speak to their children and little ones of the LORD'S gracious dealings. And what can afford a sight more lovely or more engaging, than to behold the father of a family recounting to his children and household around him, what the LORD hath done for his... read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 11:18-25

18-25 Let all be directed by the three rules here given. 1. Let our hearts be filled with the word of God. There will not be good practices in the life, unless there be good thoughts, good affections, and good principles in the heart. 2. Let our eyes be fixed upon the word of God, having constant regard to it as the guide of our way, as the rule of our work, Psalms 119:30. Psalms 119:3. Let our tongues be employed about the word of God. Nor will any thing do more to cause prosperity, and... read more

Obedience Enjoined v. 18. Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, stamp them indelibly on both reason and will, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes, v. 19. and ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down and when thou risest up. v. 20.

I speak] not with your children [have I to do]2 which have not known, and which have not seen the chastisement of the Lord your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, and his stretched-out arm, 3And his miracles, [signs] and his acts, which he did in the midst of... read more
