Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Deuteronomy 9:11

"And it came to pass at the end of forty days and forty nights, that Jehovah gave me the two tables of stone, even the tables of the covenant. And Jehovah said unto me, Arise, get thee down quickly from hence; for thy people that thou hast brought forth out of Egypt have corrupted themselves; they are quickly turned aside out of the way which I commanded them; they have made them a molten image. Furthermore Jehovah spake unto me, saying, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Deuteronomy 9:9

Ver. 9. I neither did eat bread nor drink water— Dr. Shaw observes, that "the eastern nations in general are great eaters of bread; it being computed that three persons in four live entirely upon it, or, at least, upon such compositions as are made of barley or wheat flour. Frequent mention is made of this simple diet in the Holy Scriptures; where the flesh of animals, though sometimes it may be included in the eating of bread, or making a meal, is not often recorded.

12-29.

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Deuteronomy 9:1-11

Warning against self-righteousness 9:1-10:11"From a literary standpoint Deuteronomy 9:1 to Deuteronomy 10:11 is a travel narrative much like Deuteronomy 1:6 to Deuteronomy 3:29, with which, in fact, it shares much in common. For example, both are introduced (Deuteronomy 1:1-5; Deuteronomy 9:1-6) and concluded (Deuteronomy 3:29; Deuteronomy 10:11) by a setting in the plains of Moab in anticipation of the conquest of Canaan." [Note: Merrill, Deuteronomy, p. 189.] This pericope contains the second... read more

Thomas Constable

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Deuteronomy 9:7-24

Moses provided ample evidence of Israel’s stubbornness. Again he called the Israelites to remember their past (Deuteronomy 9:7). He gave their rebellion at Horeb extended attention in this address because it was a very serious offense. They followed reception of God’s greatest blessing, the revelation of Himself and His will, with immediate apostasy."The very finger of God [Deuteronomy 9:10]. This is a double figure of speech (1) in which God is ascribed human features (anthropomorphism) and... read more
