L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 5:1-33

A REVIEW OF THE TEN COMMANDMENTS (vs.1-22) At the beginning of the wilderness journey God had given Israel the ten commandments. Now at the end of the journey it was necessary that these same commandments should be strongly pressed upon them. They were now to enter the land, but were to have no smug thoughts of so having obtained what was promised them that they would be able to relax and ignore the laws of God. Moses, now at the age of 120 years, had not declined in the energy of his... read more

REVIEW OF THE LAWS THE LESSONS OF SINAI (Deuteronomy 4:0 ) What makes a nation wise and understanding (Deuteronomy 4:6 )? What makes a nation great (Deuteronomy 4:7-8 )?

Robert Hawker

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Deuteronomy 5:6-21

I hardly think it necessary to comment upon these commandments afresh, after what was offered on this subject in the Commentary for the 20th Chapter of Exodus. I would only beg to point out to the Reader, that there is somewhat of a variation in this new edition of the Commandments, to what was first given in the Book of Exodus. It is a variation only of words however, not of meaning. Perhaps the HOLY GHOST intended by this to teach the LORD'S people, that when at any time from their strength... read more

George Haydock

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 5:15

Therefore. This is another reason why the Jews were to observe the sabbath with particular rigour. The institution of a day of rest every week, (Haydock) was intended to preserve the memory of the creation. (Calmet) --- God also requires that his people should be grateful on this day for the rest which he had granted to them, (Haydock) and preserve carefully all the monuments of the true religion. (Calmet) read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 5:6-22

6-22 There is some variation here from Deuteronomy 5:20 as between the Lord's prayer in Deuteronomy 5:6 and Deuteronomy 5:11. It is more necessary that we tie ourselves to the things, than to the words unalterably. The original reason for hallowing the sabbath, taken from God's resting from the work of creation on the seventh day, is not here mentioned. Though this ever remains in force, it is not the only reason. Here it is taken from Israel's deliverance out of Egypt; for that was typical of... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Deuteronomy 5:1-21

The Ten Commandments as Given on Sinai v. 1. Add Moses called all Israel and said unto them, he intended his voice to reach as many as possible and to make the announcement as impressive as possible, Hear, O Israel, the statutes and judgments which I speak in your ears this day, that ye may learn them, and keep and do them, watch carefully to perform them. After this brief introduction, Moses immediately launches forth in the repetition of the Decalogue as it was given by the Lord on Mount... read more

Frederick Brotherton Meyer

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Deuteronomy 5:1-21

the Decalogue Repeated Deuteronomy 5:1-21 The Law of God is for “ all Israel.” None are exempt. “Not with our fathers” means not with them only; Moses also uses the expression because many of the references of the Decalogue were to the settled life of Canaan. “Face to face,” not in dark visions, but clearly and lucidly, Job 4:12-13 . Our “face-to-face” vision is yet to come, 1 Corinthians 13:12 ; Revelation 22:4 . Notice in Deuteronomy 5:5 the ideal mediator, Galatians 3:19 ; 1 Timothy 2:5... read more
