Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Deuteronomy 16:1-17

Much of the communion between God and his people Israel was kept up, and a face of religion preserved in the nation, by the three yearly feasts, the institution of which, and the laws concerning them, we have several times met with already; and here they are repeated. I. The law of the passover, so great a solemnity that it made the whole month, in the midst of which it was placed, considerable: Observe the month Abib, Deut. 16:1. Though one week only of this month was to be kept as a... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 16:9

Seven weeks then shalt thou number unto thee ,.... And then another feast was to take place, called from hence the feast of weeks, and sometimes Pentecost, from its being the fiftieth day: begin to number the seven weeks from such time as thou beginnest to put the sickle to the corn ; for the sheaf of the wave offering, as the first fruits of barley harvest, which was done on the morrow after the sabbath in the passover week, and from thence seven weeks or fifty days were reckoned, and... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 16:10

And thou shall keep the feast of weeks unto the Lord thy God ,.... The feast of Pentecost, at which time the Spirit was poured down upon the apostles, Acts 2:1 . with a tribute of a freewill offering of thine hand ; there were two wave loaves which were ordered to be brought and seven lambs, one young bullock and two rams for a burnt offering, together with the meat and drink offerings belonging thereunto, and a kid of the goats for a sin offering, and two lambs for a peace offering, ... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 16:11

And thou shalt rejoice before the Lord thy God ,.... Make a liberal feast, and keep it cheerfully, in the presence of God, in the place where he resides, thankfully acknowledging all his mercies and favours: thou, and thy son, and thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and the Levite that is within thy gates ; that dwelt in the same city, who were all to come with him to Jerusalem at this feast, and to partake of it with him: and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 16:12

And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt ,.... And now delivered from that bondage; the consideration of which should make them liberal in their freewill offering, and generous in the feast they provided, and compassionate to the stranger, widow, and fatherless: and thou shalt observe and do these statutes ; concerning the passover, the feast of unleavened bread, and of Pentecost, and the peace offerings and the freewill offerings belonging to them: and nothing could... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 16:13

Thou shalt observe the feast of tabernacles seven days ,.... Which began on the fifteenth day of Tisri, or September; see Leviticus 23:34 , &c.; after that thou hast gathered in thy corn and thy wine ; and therefore sometimes called the feast of ingathering, Exodus 23:16 , barley harvest began at the passover, and wheat harvest at Pentecost; and before the feast of tabernacles began, the vintage and the gathering of the olives were over, as well as all other summer fruits were... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 16:11

Thou shalt rejoice - The offerings of the Israelites were to be eaten with festivity, communicated to their friends with liberality, and bestowed on the poor with great generosity, that they might partake with them in these repasts with joy before the Lord. To answer these views it was necessary to eat the flesh while it was fresh, as in that climate putrefaction soon took place; therefore they were commanded to let nothing remain until the morning, Deuteronomy 16:4 . This consideration is... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 16:9

Verse 9 9.Seven weeks shalt thou number. It must be observed that the Passover fell in a part of the year when the harvests were beginning to ripen; and consequently the first-fruits, of which I treated under the First Commandment, were then offered. Seven weeks afterwards they celebrated another feast-day, which was called Pentecost, i.e., the fiftieth, by the Greeks. There was just this number of days between the departure of the people and the publication of the Law. Another offering of... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 16:11

Verse 11 11.And thou shalt require. On another ground he exhorts and excites them to willingness, because the service of God brings this rejoicing; for there is nothing which ought more to stimulate us to obedience, that when we know that God rather consults our good than seeks to obtain any advantage from us. Ungodly men, indeed, rejoice also, nay, they are wanton and intemperate in their joy; but since that joy is not only transient, but their laughter is turned into weeping and gnashing of... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 16:13

Verse 13 13.Thou shalt observe the feast of tabernacles. Its first day was called the day of In-gathering, (collectionum ,) because the produce of the whole year was then stored in their granaries (361) and provision cellars. Since, therefore, they then rested from their rural labors, it was a convenient time of year for the celebration of the festivals; for in order that they might more willingly go up to Jerusalem, it was arranged by God, that it should be done with but little expense and... read more
