Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Deuteronomy 31:22-30

Here, I. The charge is given to Joshua, which God has said (Deut. 31:14) he would give him. The same in effect that Moses had given him. The same in effect that Moses had given him (Deut. 31:7): Be strong and of a good courage, Deut. 31:23. Joshua had now heard from God so much of the wickedness of the people whom he was to have the conduct of as could not but be a discouragement to him: ?Nay,? says God, ?how bad soever they are, thou shalt go through thy understanding, for I will be with... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 31:22

Moses therefore wrote this song the same day ,.... The same day it was dictated to him by divine inspiration; he wrote it, as Josephus says F4 Antiqu. l. 4. c. 8. sect. 44. ,"in hexameter verse, which he left in the holy Bible or book (the Pentateuch), containing (as he adds) a prophecy of things future, according to which all things have been done, and are done; and in nothing of it has he erred from the truth;'which is a very just account of it, and worthy of observation: and... read more

And he gave Joshua the son of Nun a charge ,.... It may be a question who gave this charge, the Lord or Moses; according to the connection of the words with the preceding, it seems to be the latter; for the immediate antecedent to the relative he is Moses, and so the Septuagint interpreters understand it; but then they are obliged to read some following clauses different from the original, as, instead of "I swear", they read "the Lord sware"; and the last clause they read, "and he shall be... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 31:24

And it came to pass, when Moses had made an end of writing the words of this law in a book ,.... In this book of Deuteronomy, and which concluded the Pentateuch: until they were finished ; all the words of the law, and the whole five books of Moses, excepting some few verses, Deuteronomy 34:1 , which were added by another hand, Joshua or Ezra. read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 31:25

That Moses commanded the Levites ,.... These were not the common Levites, but the priests who were also Levites, to whom the law was given, Deuteronomy 31:9 ; and none but they might touch the ark, or go so near it as, they are bid to do, to put the law on the side of it; so Aben Ezra; it follows: which bare the ark of the covenant of the Lord ; as the priests are said to do; see Gill on Deuteronomy 31:9 ; for though in journeying the Kohathites carried it, yet not until it was... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 31:26

Take this book of the law ,.... Not Deuteronomy only, but the whole Pentateuch: and put it in the side of the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God ; not in the ark, for there were nothing there but the two tables of stone with the ten commands on them, 1 Kings 8:9 ; but on one side of it; the Targum of Jonathan says, it was"put in a chest (or box) on the right side of the ark of the covenant;'which is very probable. Jarchi observes, that the wise men of Israel are divided about it... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 31:23

Verse 23 23.And he gave Joshua the son of Nul, a charge. The more difficult was the task of Joshua, the more needful was it that he should be encouraged to exert himself, and to beware of failure. For this reason his charge is repeated, although in his person all the others were at the same time confirmed. Moses grounds it on the promise of God, which has been so often mentioned; and says that Joshua had been chosen to complete the work of deliverance already begun; for it was hardly credible... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 31:24

Verse 24 24.And it came to pass, when Moses had made an end. By “the words of this law,” we must understand not only those which are embraced in this book, but in the other three also; and there is an implied antithesis between the two tables written by God’s hand, and the exposition which was afterwards added, lest there should be any obscurity respecting God’s will on account of the brevity with which it was delivered. At the very beginning, indeed, God had set forth whatever it was useful... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 31:3-23

Joshua. Joshua a type of Jesus, the true Leader into the rest of God ( Hebrews 4:8 ). God has given him, as formerly he gave the son of Nun, for "a Leader and Commander to the people" ( Isaiah 55:4 ). I. THE MAN . Joshua as leader was: 1. Divinely appointed (verse 3). 2. Divinely led . "He doth go before thee" (verse 8). The captain had a higher Captain ( Joshua 5:14 ). 3. Divinely assisted . "He will be with thee" (verse 8). Our Leader is Emmanuel—"God... read more
