申命记 6:25 RCUVSS

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 6:25

Merciful. Hebrew, "he will justify us." Chaldean, "reward us." Justice often denotes the mercy which God shews to his people, and the punishment which he inflicts upon their enemies. (Calmet) (Matthew vi. 1.) --- Past, present, and future benefits concur to make the Hebrews observe the commandments. God had rescued them from slavery; (ver. 21,) he had already given them great possessions, and would grant them still more if they would be faithful; as on the other hand, all will be lost if they... read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 6:17-25

17-25 Moses gives charge to keep God's commandments. Negligence will ruin us; but we cannot be saved without diligence. It is our interest, as well as our duty, to be religious. It will be our life. Godliness has the promise of the continuance and comfort of the life that now is, as far as it is for God's glory. It will be our righteousness. It is only through the Mediator we can be righteous before God. The knowledge of the spirituality and excellency of the holy law of God, is suited to show... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Deuteronomy 6:16-25

The Admonition Substantiated v. 16. Ye shall not tempt the Lord, your God, put either His mercy or His righteousness to a test, as ye tempted Him in Massah, Exodus 17:2-Judges :, in the matter of demanding water to drink in the wilderness. v. 17. Ye shall diligently keep, literally, "observing ye shall observe," the commandments of the Lord, your God, and His testimonies and His statutes which He hath commanded thee.

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Deuteronomy 6:20-25

No Compromise with Idolatry Deuteronomy 6:20-25 ; Deuteronomy 7:1-11 The great Lawgiver had His eye constantly on the coming generation. It is good when the children are so arrested by our religious life, that they come to ask us to tell them the reasons that account for it. Seek to live so purely and devoutly, and yet so attractively, that the young people around will be compelled to inquire after your secret, Luke 11:1 . We are not only to teach the children, but to guard them against... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Deuteronomy 6:1-25

The appeal of Moses was now elaborated in a great statement on the deepest value of the commandment and the corresponding responsibilities of the people Observe the peculiar form of the opening statement, "Now this is the commandment, the statutes, and the judgments." The very form suggested the unification of plurality and evidently was intended to do so, for it led to the statement, "Jehovah our God is one Jehovah." Here Jehovah was used as name and as title, its supreme value, of course,... read more

Analysis in the words of Moses: a When your son asks you in time to come, saying, “What do the testimonies, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which Yahweh our God has commanded you, mean?” (Deuteronomy 6:20). b Then you shall say to your son, “We were Pharaoh’s bondmen in Egypt, and Yahweh brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand (Deuteronomy... read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Deuteronomy 6:25

Heb. righteousness shall be to us. and pronounced by God to be truly righteous and holy persons, if we sincerely obey him, otherwise we shall be declared to be unrighteous and ungodly persons, and all our profession of religion will appear to be in hypocrisy. Or, mercy shall be to us, or with us. For as the Hebrew word rendered righteousness is very oft put for mercy, as Psalms 24:5; Psalms 36:10; Psalms 51:14; Proverbs 10:2; Proverbs 11:4; Daniel 9:16, &c.; so this sense seems best to... read more
