Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Deuteronomy 30:6

"And Jehovah thy God will circumcise thy heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love Jehovah thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live. And Jehovah thy God will put all these curses upon thine enemies, and on them that hate thee, that persecuted thee. And thou shalt return and obey the voice of Jehovah, and do all his commandments, which I command thee this day. And Jehovah thy God will make thee plenteous, in all the work of thy hand, in the fruit of thy body, and... read more

Thomas Coke

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Deuteronomy 30:6

Ver. 6. The Lord thy God will circumcise thine heart— Esdras and Nehemiah inform us, that the heart of the Jews was not circumcised when they returned from Babylon: the whole Jewish history teaches us the same; and so do St. Stephen and St. Paul. It is necessary, therefore, to understand this prophecy of some future restoration of the Jews, says Houbigant; and with him many of the most judicious writers agree: for there are, in this and several other prophecies concerning the restoration of the... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Deuteronomy 30:1-10

1. The possibility of restoration 30:1-10When banished to the ends of the earth, the Israelites could repent and return to Yahweh in their hearts, purposing to obey Him again (Deuteronomy 30:1-2). In that event God would do several things for them. He would bring them back to their land and allow them to occupy it again (Deuteronomy 30:3-5). He would also permanently change the people’s heart attitude toward Himself (Deuteronomy 30:6). Here Moses anticipated a new covenant that eventually... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Deuteronomy 30:2-20

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

John Dummelow

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 30:1-20

Promises and AppealsA promise of restoration, even after abandonment and rejection, is held out, on condition of repentance; and an appeal is made to the people to choos the way of obedience and life rather than that of disobedience and death.6. Circumcision is the sign of the covenant. To circumcise the heart is to consecrate it to God: cp. on Leviticus 19:23.11. Hidden] RV ’hard,’ lit. ’wonderful.’ God’s law is not unintelligible or impracticable. It is a revealed thing (see Deuteronomy... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Deuteronomy 30:5

(5) Into the land which thy fathers possessed.—It is very difficult to interpret these words of any land except Palestine. Comp. Jeremiah 29:13-14, for their fulfilment in the first restoration, from Babylon. read more

Charles John Ellicott

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Deuteronomy 30:8

(8) And thou shalt return and . . . do all his commandments.—It is as certain as anything can be in this world that the laws of Deuteronomy have never been kept perfectly. The minute observances of the Talmudical system took the heart and spirit out of the law of Moses. Christians do not profess to obey any commandments but those which are called moral. If the Law itself is to be fulfilled, a restoration of Israel would seem to be necessary. read more
