RECORDING THE COVENANT"Ye stand this day all of you before Jehovah your God; your heads, your tribes, your elders, and your officers, even all the men of Israel, your little ones, your wives, and thy sojourner that is in the midst of thy camps, from the hewer of the wood unto the drawer of the water; that thou mayest enter into the covenant of Jehovah thy God, and into his oath, which Jehovah thy God maketh with thee this day; that he may establish thee this day unto himself for a people, and... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Deuteronomy 29:11

Ver. 11. Thy stranger—from the hewer of thy wood, unto the drawer of thy water— That is, not excepting those who are employed in the very meanest offices: See Joshua 21:27. These words comprehend only the slaves and foreign mercenaries who attended the camp, and were quartered by themselves; the hewers of wood in one place, and the drawers of water in another. These last seem to have occupied the extremity of the whole camp, and to have been reckoned in the lowest rank of slaves. read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Deuteronomy 29:10

10-29. Ye stand this day all of you before the Lord your God—The whole congregation of Israel, of all ages and conditions, all—young as well as old; menials as well as masters; native Israelites as well as naturalized strangers—all were assembled before the tabernacle to renew the Sinaitic covenant. None of them were allowed to consider themselves as exempt from the terms of that national compact, lest any lapsing into idolatry might prove a root of bitterness, spreading its noxious seed and... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Deuteronomy 29:2-20

VI. MOSES’ THIRD MAJOR ADDRESS: AN EXHORTATION TO OBEDIENCE 29:2-30:20"The rest of chapter 29 contains many reminiscences of the Near Eastern treaty pattern. It is not presented in a systematic manner but in narrative form. However, elements of the pattern are clearly discernible, making it extremely likely that some kind of covenant ceremony underlies the events here reported." [Note: Thompson, p. 279.] The form of this section argues for it being a covenant renewal. There is a historical... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Deuteronomy 29:9-15

2. The purpose of the assembly 29:9-15In view of God’s past faithfulness the Israelites should keep "this covenant" (Deuteronomy 29:9), the Mosaic Covenant, so that they might prosper in the future. Moses assembled the people to commit themselves anew to their covenant with God. God had made the Mosaic Covenant with all the Israelites, not just the generation that stood before Moses on this occasion (Deuteronomy 29:14-15). read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 29:1-29

Exhortations and WarningsIn this chapter the covenant is renewed and enforced with a reminder of God’s goodness and the consequences of disobedience.3. Temptations] i.e. provings or trials: see n Deuteronomy 7:19. 4. The people have not laid these things to heart. For the form of expression see on the ’hardening of Pharaoh’s heart’ (Exodus 4:21). 6.

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Deuteronomy 29:11

(11) Your little ones.—Compare St. Peter’s words on the day of Pentecost: “The promise is unto you and to your children” (Acts 2:39). The covenant with Abraham was that the Almighty would be a God to him and to his seed (Genesis 17:7), including the child of eight days old (Deuteronomy 29:12), and the slave (Deuteronomy 29:13), who were to receive the sign of His covenant in their flesh for an everlasting covenant.From the hewer of thy wood unto the drawer of thy water.—From this Rashi infers... read more
