申命记 12:18 RCUVSS

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Deuteronomy 12:1-32

Life In a New Land Deuteronomy 12:0 This chapter opens a new section of the Mosaic legislation. Up to this time we have had copious and urgent discourses by Moses upon the law, its principles, and its purposes more or less abstract and philosophical discourses; now we come into practical instruction and exhortation. The people are about to move into new circumstances and to sustain new relations, and Moses condescends to particularise, and seeks by almost tedious detail to impress upon the... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Deuteronomy 12:17-18

It is worthy observation, what attention is shown, in the appointment of every religious rite, to the place of offering. And the reason is plain. It is JESUS, as the sum and substance of all which is referred to. In him every service had its fulfillment, to him all pointed, and from him the whole efficacy was derived. Blessed Redeemer! may I never lose sight of thee in all places, in all thy churches, in all thine ordinances, in all thy ways and works! And do thou dearest LORD be in my heart... read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 12:5-32

5-32 The command to bring ALL the sacrifices to the door of the tabernacle, was now explained with reference to the promised land. As to moral service, then, as now, men might pray and worship every where, as they did in their synagogues. The place which God would choose, is said to be the place where he would put his name. It was to be his habitation, where, as King of Israel, he would be found by all who reverently sought him. Now, under the gospel, we have no temple or altar that sanctifies... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Deuteronomy 12:17-32

Concerning the Care of the Levites, The Eating of Sacrificial Meat, and Idolatry v. 17. Thou mayest not eat within thy gates the tithe of thy corn, or of thy wine, or of thy oil, or the firstlings of thy herds or of thy flock, nor any of thy vows which thou vowest, nor thy free-will offerings, or heave-offering of thine hand, whatever was taken from the possession of the Israelites as a gift to Jehovah; all these could not be consumed in the worshiper's house or in his home town; v. 18. but... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Deuteronomy 12:18

Deuteronomy THE EATING OF THE PEACE-OFFERING Deu_12:18 . There were three bloody sacrifices, the sin-offering, the burnt-offering, and the peace-offering. In all three expiation was the first idea, but in the second of them the act of burning symbolised a further thought, namely, that of offering to God, while in the third, the peace-offering, there was added to both of these the still further thought of the offerer’s participation with God, as symbolised by the eating of the sacrifice. So... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Deuteronomy 12:1-32

Having thus repeated the great words of the Law and called the people to obedience, Moses now proceeded to deal with the statutes and judgments, and, first, the statutes. In dealing with these he commenced with the true place of worship. He solemnly charged them what their attitude toward false places of worship must be when they entered the land. They were to be utterly destroyed without pity and without sparing. Moses then put into striking contrast their attitude toward the true place of... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 12:17-19

The Law of Tithes, Firstlings, Votive and Freewill Offerings, and Heave-offerings (Deuteronomy 12:17-19 ). But this exception of being allowed to eat in their own cities in the case of animals was not to apply to tithes, firstlings, peace offerings or heave-offerings (contribution offerings). These all had to be brought to the sanctuary to be offered before Yahweh, because they were distinctively His. They were set apart for Him. The first thing to recognise here is that Moses expects his... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 12:1-28

Deuteronomy 12:1-Hosea : . The Law of One Sanctuary.— The local sanctuaries (originally Canaanite) with everything belonging to them, are to be destroyed, and all sacrifices are to be offered at the place which Yahweh should choose. Yet ( Deuteronomy 12:15 f.) animals intended for food alone may be killed and eaten locally. Though the name Jerusalem does not occur in D, it is fairly evident that no other place can be intended by “ the place which Yahweh . . . shall choose,” etc., though A.... read more
