申命記 11:26-28 JCB

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Deuteronomy 11:26-32

Here Moses concludes his general exhortations to obedience; and his management is very affecting, and such as, one would think, should have engaged them for ever to God, and should have left impressions upon them never to be worn out. I. He sums up all his arguments for obedience in two words, the blessing and the curse (Deut. 11:26), that is, the rewards and the punishments, as they stand in the promises and the threatenings, which are the great sanctions of the law, taking hold of hope and... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 11:26

Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse ,.... Meaning the law of God, and the statutes, judgments, and commandments of it; which, if obeyed, blessings would be bestowed upon them; but if disobeyed, they would be liable to the curses of it, as the following words explain it; see Deuteronomy 30:15 everyone of the Israelites were called upon to see and consider this matter, it being an interesting one to them all. read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 11:27

A blessing, if ye obey the commandments of the Lord your God ,.... That is, a blessing should come upon them, even all temporal blessings they stood in need of; they should be blessed in body and estate, in their families, and in their flocks, in town and country; see Deuteronomy 28:1 , which I command you this day ; afresh repeated to them, and enjoined them the observation of it in the name of the Lord. read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 11:28

And a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of the Lord your God ,.... Accursed in body and estate, in basket and store; in their families, flocks, and herds; within doors and without; in city, and country; going out, or coming in; in this world, and that to come, if divine goodness prevent not; see Deuteronomy 28:15 . but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day ; which the law he gave them, and repeated to them, directed them to walk in: to go after other gods,... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 11:26

Behold, I set before you - a blessing and a curse - If God had not put it in the power of this people either to obey or disobey; if they had not had a free will, over which they had complete authority, to use it either in the way of willing or nilling; could God, with any propriety, have given such precepts as these, sanctioned with such promises and threatenings? If they were not free agents, they could not be punished for disobedience, nor could they, in any sense of the word, have been... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 11:26

Verse 26 26.Behold, I set before you this day. He now embraces the two points at once, viz., that they would be blessed if they earnestly apply themselves to the keeping of the Law, and cursed, if they shake off its yoke and revel in their lusts. But, when he says that he here sets before them a blessing and a curse, it is as much as to declare, that he does not merely tell them what is right, but that the reward is prepared if they obey; and if not, that the punishment is also at hand. Thus we... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 11:22-26

Vastness of promise. An inspiring statement of what God would do for the obedient nation. Shining through it we see the promise to the Church. God promises— I. VICTORY OVER ALL ENEMIES . ( Deuteronomy 11:23 .) The strongest spiritual foes will go down if we cleave to God. Though greater and mightier than we, they shall be overthrown. II. ENLARGEMENT OF BOUNDS . ( Deuteronomy 11:23 .) They would grow numerous, fill the land, and spread beyond it. A wider prospect... read more

Behold, I set before you ; place for your consideration ( Deuteronomy 4:8 ; Deuteronomy 30:15 ), so that you may see whither tends obedience on the one hand, and disobedience on the other. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 11:26-28

The dread alternative before every man. Perhaps, strictly speaking, the final paragraph of this chapter includes Deuteronomy 11:26-32 . The reader thereof will, however, observe that, while in its entirety it deals with the blessing and curse, yet the first three verses deal with them as resting on the people, the remaining verses regard them as pronounced by the people. The theme indicated by the latter half is treated on at Deuteronomy 27:1-26 . We therefore confine our remarks to... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 11:26-29

The great alternative. I. GOD SUMMONS US TO DECISION . 1. His revelations lay the ground for it . "Light is come into the world" ( John 3:19 ). 2. They demand it . Men would trifle, but God says, "Now" ( 2 Corinthians 6:2 ). Men would put off, but God urges to decision ( Joshua 24:15 ). 3. They shut men up to it . When light comes, decision is inevitable. We must settle what our attitude towards it will be. In decreeing not to choose, we in reality... read more
