Deuteronomy 12:1 - Announcement Of Particular Laws.

These are the statutes and judgments (cf. Deuteronomy 4:1 ; Deuteronomy 6:1 ). Moses, as the servant of God, had taught Israel statutes and rights, as God had commanded him ( Deuteronomy 4:5 ); and now he recapitulates the principal of these for their guidance in the way of obedience. These they were to observe all the days of their life upon the land that was to be given them; the land was the Lord's, and there, as long as they possessed it, the Law of the Lord was to be paramount.
