Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 30:15-20

15-20 What could be said more moving, and more likely to make deep and lasting impressions? Every man wishes to obtain life and good, and to escape death and evil; he desires happiness, and dreads misery. So great is the compassion of the Lord, that he has favoured men, by his word, with such a knowledge of good and evil as will make them for ever happy, if it be not their own fault. Let us hear the sum of the whole matter. If they and theirs would love God, and serve him, they should live and... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Deuteronomy 30:11-20

Death and Life set before Israel v. 11. For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not hidden from thee, neither is it far off, it could not be said to be unusually difficult, either with regard to its knowledge or its fulfillment. v. 12. It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say, who shall go up for us to heaven and bring it unto us that we may hear it and do it? v. 13.

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Deuteronomy 30:11-20

the Supreme Choice Deuteronomy 30:11-20 The immediate purpose of this passage is to encourage the people by reminding them that all things needful for a holy life are within their reach. Paul refers to it for the same purpose, Romans 10:6 . The love and grace of God are not concealed as hidden mysteries might be. There is no need to undertake a long and dangerous journey, like that which brought the eastern Magi to the manger-bed of Bethlehem. The Word of God, which is another name for our... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Deuteronomy 30:1-20

Continuing his discourse, Moses uttered words thrilling at first with tenderness and urgent appeal. In the first ten verses of the chapter we have the long look ahead of love. He seems to have seen the people in the conditions which he had predicted must result from disobedience, scattered far off from their own land. He saw them, however, returning in spirit to God as the result of severe discipline. In view of this, he saw how ready God would ever be to receive and pardon them when they... read more
