This too explains why the book of Deuteronomy is made use of in the New Testament in so very striking a manner, and in circumstances so eminently critical. Redemption accomplished; Christ the head of the church above; the Holy Ghost sent down here below; and all this borne witness to in the worship and in the ways of Christians and the church. You may not possess all of your possessions and yet, if you spend your life roaming in the wilderness it's not God's will, it's not his desire, but he will be with you there and help you there. Now a new generation was getting ready to enter the promised land. THE CHURCH'S DUTY - to obey her Lord, and go forward at once to this great work. . ( Romans 7:24 ). In Deuteronomy 15:1-23 we find a similar principle as to the year of release. The offspring of your herds and flocks. But you are the one that puts the limitations on what God wants to do. Moses recounts for them the history of what had taken place before as a warning not to repeat the same mistakes. Was there any reason in this why the children of Israel should have wars with them now? ( Romans 7:24 ). To have confidence in God is one of the important points here, to cherish full confidence that whatever He gives us is the very best thing for us. Praying through Deuteronomy 6:6. Thou shalt sell me meat for money, that I may eat; and give me water for money, that I may drink: only I will pass through on my feet." Above all the prime object is to press obedience on the people of God, but the obedience of a people who had already found what it was to have utterly broken down on their own assumed responsibility. Some there are, no doubt, who assume that God has not in these things expressed any will of His, own. ^D John VII. All this is made to converge on the children. Now recognizing my weakness, I'm crying for power outside of myself. ^d 11 The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he? 303)." 30.) What love there was in this, if by any means he might impress obedience on the people that were just going into the land! He sets Himself against the high places; He will not have them. 8 "You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. That it is said of both, " God spake all these words." He said, "How can I myself alone bear your cumbrance or your burdens or your strife? Known to God (ver. From the beginning of the second month of the first year of the exodus (Exodus 19:1) to the twentieth day of the second month of the second year (Numbers 10:11).This was the period of organisation, in which the people . "Your eyes have seen what Jehovah did because of Baal-peor: for all the men that followed Baal-peor, Jehovah thy God hath destroyed them from among you. The tenth has also the first two clauses in a different order from that in Exodus, and adds 'his field.'. We see from this that it is mere ignorance to suppose that there is not a divine system in the book; and this is more remarkable, I think, in Deuteronomy, if possible, than in the preceding books. How good is the Lord! The spring of obedience was wanting. So he's getting up there now, about a hundred and twenty years old. ii. So I spake unto you; and ye would not hear, but rebelled against the commandment of Jehovah, and went presumptuously up into the hilt And the Amorites, which dwelt in that mountain, came out against you, and chased you, as bees do," there was a most ignominious flight "and destroyed you in Seir, even unto Hormah And ye returned and wept before Jehovah; but Jehovah would not hearken to your voice, nor give ear unto you. I`m blessed into my down sitting and I`m blessed into my uprising! This is the point here, and thus we see the connection with all that has gone before. He wanted to leave them his blessing nay, he wanted them to have the best blessing that God could give them. So it is that the New Testament gives us the failure of the apostle Peter, not merely at the beginning but in the very midst of his career. Surely this is very significant, and points out a manifest difference in the character and scope and design of the book of Deuteronomy as compared with Exodus. "Ye shall buy meat of them for money, that ye may eat; and ye shall also buy water of them for money, that ye may drink. "Behold, I have taught you statutes and judgments, even as Jehovah my God commanded me, that ye should do so in the land whither ye go to possess it. Undoubtedly the gatherings in of the corn and the wine (that is, the harvest and the vintage) are the well known types of God's final dealings: the harvest when He separates the wheat from the chaff, or at any rate from that which is not wheat; and the vintage when He executes unsparing judgment upon the vine of the earth upon all religion that is vain and denies heaven. (1) These are the words. p. 136 (Pitman's Edition). It was to be a real fealty: it was not merely a dogma pure and simple, but to be known as a fact. Why should they not rejoice? Now Israel had totally failed in their place. God Himself did not disclose Himself by an external creature-shape. It had more of the family character; but a beautiful feature is connected with it: "And the Levite (because he hath no part nor inheritance with thee), and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, which are within thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that Jehovah thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hand which thou doest." "Thou mayest not sacrifice the passover in any of thy gates, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee: but at the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose to place his name in, there thou shalt sacrifice the passover at even, at the going down of the sun, at the season that thou camest forth out of Egypt. The tragedy of unbelief, verse thirty-two.Now, I love this. In the very first place is laid down utter destruction of the high places. The remembrance of their own estate as slaves in Egypt till delivered by Jehovah is most suitable in verse 15; but it is certain that this is an appeal to their hearts, not the ground stated by God in promulgating the fourth commandment. "Jehovah said unto me, Say unto them, Go not up, neither fight; for I am not among you; lest ye be smitten before your enemies. Og the king came out, and as with Heshbon, so with Bashan. [Note: C. F. Keil and Franz Delitzsch, Biblical Commentary on the Old Testament: Pentateuch, 3:284.] practical object, seems to be from first to last an enforcement of obedience, grounded on the relationship between Jehovah their God and Israel, whom He was just bringing as His people into His land. They came to a place, they said, "Awe my, this looks like a good place to pitch our tents". And that which I could not do because of the weakness of my flesh I find that God has done for me and has made provision for me through the power of the Holy Spirit. It was not yet Christ manifested, but man under trial of the law and its ordinances and restraints, dealt with as living in the world, and instructed in view of this present life. "O wretched man that I am who shall deliver me?" 6 The Lord our God said to us at Horeb, "You have stayed long enough at this mountain. There are many, many Christians who have been long enough, and far too long, in the mount, and it would be welt for themselves if they could hear this voice summoning them to go forward. Not at all, but His own people. Yet it would be hazardous to assert that it is the exact original. There were reasons due to God's character why Moses should not bring the people into the laud. Whatever we are called out for is what Satan endeavours to destroy. If a person takes what does not belong to him, every man, even a heathen, can judge it. This therefore gives its tone to the book. This is just as characteristic a truth for us as the one Jehovah was for a Jew. Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount. "But the Lord heard the words of your complaining, he was angry and said, "You're not to go in". India, China, Africa, etc., - he knows them all, yet he says, "Go in and possess.". It is not the Jewish people in the school of Jehovah to manifest what was in their heart, and what He was towards them; but the people strengthened by Jehovah in presence of a power mightier than their own. Of Kadesh, or Rekam, in the south part, there is no doubt. II. Is this what you feel? God said that He's not gonna deliver them into your hand" and how that they armed themselves anyhow and went up against the hill of the Amorites and were pursued by them. God would "give his angels charge concerning him;" and what a fine proof it would be that He was the true Messiah, if He threw Himself down from such a height, and withal the angels preserved Him! We need further insight to think the right way and make right life decisions. So this fact also is used. As God loved Moses, so Moses confided in God. Prayer Point #4: Pray for God's will to be done. 24; 2 Cor. "Thou shalt eat no leavened bread with it; seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread therewith, even the bread of affliction; for thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt in haste: that thou mayest remember the day when thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt all the days of thy life." 40, Moses, after reviewing the recent history of the people, and showing how it reveals Jehovah's love for Israel, earnestly urges upon them the duty of keeping His laws, reminding them of His spirituality and absoluteness. (Dr. D.'s Introd. *. It might be, and no doubt was, trying enough for Israel to take quietly the unfriendliness of the Edomites, Ammonites, and Moabites; but no matter what the provocation given, no matter how they might be insulted by them (and they were), a hand of Israel must not be lifted up against their brethren; for Jehovah reminds them of the connection, and gives those races the closest name possible their brethren. Ver. Those who persist in hardening themselves must indeed be destroyed; but not by us. 7 Powerful Prayer Points with Scripture. What we find here is a warning not to yield to the sight of their eyes or the violence of their hands, guarding against a covetous spirit which pays slight regard to that which God had assigned to others. Kadesh. I said, "Hey, you shut up and get out of here. Surely this is highly significant. Here then we have all laid bare. It is the due conduct of a people in relationship with Jehovah; no longer the bringing out of typical institutions, but the development of the moral ways which become the people with whom Jehovah had a present connection and intercourse on earth. You must bring your instrument to a point before it will penetrate, to an edge that it . ". My Father, I ask that You grant me prosperity in all my endeavours. But God, in fact, is always left out of the calculations of unbelief. And he declared unto you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, even ten commandments; and he wrote them upon two tables of stone." If it were merely a question of man, nobody would think of choosing for another. If they betook themselves to rites and ceremonies as a means of pleasing God, Jesus gave Himself up to unreserved obedience was Himself the constant pattern of One who never sought His own will. The LORD our God spake unto you in Horeb, saying, You have dwelt long enough in this mount: Turn, and take your journey, and go to the mount of the Amorites, [and so forth] and take the land that I have promised. These feasts made an appeal to a male Israelite which none besides could make. He was a descendant of Aaron, and belonged to one of the wealthiest and most influential families among the Jewish merchant-princes of Egypt. Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the Lord thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee. They said, "We have sinned against Jehovah: we will go up and fight according to all that Jehovah our God commanded us.". Certainly they could not; this Jehovah spreads in the most forcible manner before His people for their cheer and stay. THE BOOK OF DEUTERONOMY. vi. Rekam, and that Double. In the commandment to keep it Jehovah the God of Israel speaks to this effect: "Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work; but the seventh day is the sabbath of Jehovah thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work." 95. were then offered but of a vast body of systematically-ordered teaching by types. Grace has brought us out of the condition of a nation in the flesh or of men in the earth. Praying through Deuteronomy 6:7 . But. "Rise ye up, take your journey, and pass over the river Arnon: behold, I have given into thine hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land: begin to possess it, and contend with him in battle. cxliii. And command thou the people, saying, Ye are to pass through the coast of your brethren the children of Esau, which dwell in Seir; and they shall be afraid of you: take ye good heed unto yourselves therefore: meddle not with them; for I will not give you of their land; no, not so much as a foot breadth; because I have given Mount Seir unto Esau for a possession." there is formality enough, and without having written forms, the heart may frame forms of its own, as we may have observed, if not known it in our own experience, without finding fault with other people, For notoriously, in a legal state of mind people are apt to get through the acknowledgment of sin in what they know has grieved the Lord; but even then there is a want of bowing to His will. The acknowledgment in a creed is all well; but when it comes to be the truth for one's own soul, stamping its value on our communion and also on our ways, men at once retreat back into some "dim religious light," where it is all forgotten and lost, merely owned verbally, but without power for the heart and life. Consequently we have these three feasts, which set forth particularly Jehovah providing to fill the heart of His people with peace and joy to overflowing, Yet at the first of these feasts Israel were not told to rejoice. The prospect which he gave them of a happy and early settlement in Canaan: Go to the land of the Canaanites (Deuteronomy 1:7; Deuteronomy 1:7); enter and take possession, it is all your own. Now I affirm that on the face of the scriptures no candid person can deny that Exodus is professedly given as the history of the matter; Deuteronomy as a subsequent recital to the people, without the least aim at reiterating the words, which would have been the easiest thing in the world; for even these free thinkers do not pretend that the Deuteronomist did not possess Exodus. This was a truth which Israel was most prone to disregard. If God had held to the terms of that covenant, never could the people have found their way into Canaan; but God was pleased to bring in fresh terms by a way which will be shown before we have done with this sketch of Deuteronomy; and it was simply and solely because of those fresh terms of mercy which God Himself brought in of His own grace that Israel entered there. Praying through Deuteronomy 31:6. And I said unto you, Dread not, neither be afraid of them. They could take possession of no lands whatever of their own will. 18, 19, 12, 13; ^B Mark XI. A people holy to Jehovah must not eat anything that dies of itself, nor accustom itself to an uncomely act, were it with a dumb and dead kid and the milk of its dam. 4; iv. Moses mentions how the saying pleased him: here things are stated exactly as they were. - 1 Timothy 2:3-5. Forever and ever. W. McGarveyThe Four-Fold Gospel, In the Temple at the Feast of Tabernacles. And we're looking at the obstacles rather than the power of God to deliver us from those obstacles. Nevertheless the circumstance that he too had failed to sanctify Jehovah their God in his heart as he ought that even he had misrepresented Him when it was above all due to God that His grace should be clearly seen, all this added gravity to the appeals and style of the departing man of God. We need not dilate on the beautiful detail but at the same time simple truth of this chapter. The book of Deuteronomy acknowledges this failure, and takes its stand not only on the fact that it was impossible to deny, it but on the duty of confessing it. He's looking now outside of himself for the help. "Why would God leave there and then you know, dump me?" He gave them this rehearsal and exhortation purely by divine direction; God appointed him to leave this legacy to the church. In Deuteronomy 12:1-32 we have statutes and judgments. For edition we have restored the fuller text of the earlier published edition, while retaining a few of the editorial refinements of the Met Tab edition. XXI. What we have here is not a repetition; it leads us into things secret what wrought in the people and hindered their blessing. Accordingly the very large introduction is an address to the people for the purpose of enforcing these claims. So Paul speaks of this frustration, "Oh wretched man that I am. What was meant by this? Behold, Jehovah thy God hath set the land before thee: go up and possess it, as Jehovah God of thy fathers hath said unto thee; fear not, neither be discouraged. We are to observe the statutes and to do them. Notwithstanding ye would not go up, but rebelled against the commandment of Jehovah your God: and ye murmured in your tents, and said, Because Jehovah hated us." And in verse Deuteronomy 1:2 is a little commentary, it says. John here used the word "Jews" as a designation for the Jerusalemites, who, as enemies of Christ, were to be distinguished from the multitudes who were in doubt J. Accordingly the majority of expositors take the record in Exodus for the exact one, supposing that, as Moses was speaking to the people in the latter case, he recited from memory, not from the tables of stone, and therefore there is some variation of terms. What a guard this was against the misuse of outward forms! 35; xxxii. This is met by the call to action - "Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount: turn you, and take your journey" (vers. He could have cited from any other, had any other been in all respects so suitable to the occasion. [Breakfast with the Jews came late in the forenoon, and these closing days of our Lord's ministry were full of activity that did not have time to tarry at Bethany for it. Unless I am very much mistaken,--the maps of Adricomus, Tirinius, and others, ought to be corrected, which have feigned to John LightfootFrom the Talmud and Hebraica, Kadesh. It was simply a question of subjection to God and obeying Him, who had from the first a plan for the nations round Israel as their centre. The trip from Egypt to Sinai was only preparation for the giving of the covenant. There are deeper feelings in the heart than joy. 9. It did not alter their duty, if the antecedent history of Moab and Ammon, just as much as that of Esau, was far from good. This he had fully shown in the history. It's yours." 6. They had been bondmen themselves; and if they had been delivered of God, they should cultivate the same spirit as He had shown. 3 And it came to pass in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, that Moses spake unto the children of Israel, according unto all that the LORD had given him in commandment unto them; 4 After he had slain Sihon the king of the Amorites, which dwelt in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, which dwelt at Astaroth in Edrei: 5 On this side Jordan, in the land of Moab, began Moses to declare this law, saying, 6 The LORD our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount: 7 Turn you, and take your journey, and go to the mount of the Amorites, and unto all the places nigh thereunto, in the plain, in the hills, and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea side, to the land of the Canaanites, and unto Lebanon, unto the great river, the river Euphrates. It was very important, therefore, that these men judge fairly (Deuteronomy 1:17). Is this what you hear? "4. - J.O. All this was now closed. It is evident therefore, that this book has the most sensible difference from all that preceded it. There is another peculiarity in the book of Deuteronomy which it is well to present briefly before we descend to particulars; it supposes the failure of the people. They knew it was not God's will that forty years of wilderness wanderings should lie between Egypt and the Promised Land (Deut. * This it is well to note, as we should not have discovered it from the Book of Numbers. They were to remember what rebellion must end in. vol. 12). It is no use talking about Israel: the first object is God. Appendix ii. De 1:7 'Turn and set your journey, and go to the hill country of the Amorites, and to all their neighbors in the Arabah, in the hill country and in the lowland and in the Negev and .read more Scripture: Deuteronomy 1:6-8 It was by this Scripture that the Lord, as we know, repelled the first temptation of the adversary. The first thing introduced here is the fact that Jehovah had spoken to them in Horeb, saying, "Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount. How good are the ways and the words of God! It was not God's desire that they perish in the wilderness. This is a universal and abiding principle. He that believes may calmly confide in God under all circumstances. But nobody knows about the sabbath-day unless Jehovah command it. For their lives are spent in seeking to satisfy their physical appetites and needs. "So it came to pass when all the men of war were consumed from among the people, that Jehovah spake unto me, saying, Thou art to pass over through Ar, the coast of Moab, this day: and when thou comest nigh over against the children of Ammon, distress them not, nor meddle with them." It is granted that they did not all perish in the same way, but they all fell in the wilderness. This was guarded against from the first by the fact that no similitude of God was vouchsafed. They were only tenants, and had to pay Him rent. "We turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red Sea, as Jehovah spake unto me; and we compassed Mount Seir many days. There is a warfare that goes on in our lives; the flesh warring against the spirit and the spirit against the flesh and these two are contrary. That is the point to do God's will. Moses says, "We turned," not "Ye," merely. The law of the sabbath is not given to Christians. "And so Moses sort of rehearses for them some of the problems that he had as God was dealing with him. 45, was edited and abbreviated somewhat. 8 Behold, I have set the land before you: go in and possess the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give unto them and to their seed after the. Help me to make the right choices as I continue along the path of life. But it was not a question here of truth or its forms, but of obedience: this is ever in view. Here is a list of powerful I AM affirmations that could be used as prayer points. And as for the children of Ammon, they too had passed through similar experience. These bear chiefly the character of logical deductions, and as such were largely applied in the Halakhah. I am afraid there was not much more in the weeping than in the acknowledgment of the sin. It is not then a grouping of types, whatever might be the particular scope and aim of those employed, such as we have seen in distinct forms throughout the books of Exodus, Leviticus, or Numbers; but here all that the Spirit is using, whether it be direct moral application which forms much the larger part of the book, or whether it be a selection of such shadows as fall in with its. And what the land is, whether it be fat or lean, whether there be wood therein, or not. And what nation is there so great, that hath statutes and judgments so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day." It was no longer "How shall I free myself?" 5-8; 1 Cor. After God speaks it is time to move to the next level. 5, 6; 1 Tim. (I stood between Jehovah and you at that time, to show you the word of Jehovah: for ye were afraid by reason of the fire, and went not up into the Mount.)" "Judah, thou, thy brethren shall praise thee; thy hand shall be on the neck of thine enemies; before thee shall bow down the sons of thy father. Nothing of the sort. If we have," &c. In the same sceptical spirit follows Dr. Colenso. If you suspect a rogue is in your employment, you may test him by marking a piece of money to see whether he steals or not: am I then going to mark something for God to see whether He will keep His word or not? In style similar to that of ancient treaty documents, Deuteronomy opens by recounting all that Yahweh, Israel's covenant God, has done for his people. Let us now look at the details as far as it can be done in so brief a glance as we can afford to give it at present. O Lord in Heaven, please in my job and at my workplace I ask for promotion and payment increase in Jesus' name. Because they had not a particle of confidence in God. "Because God hates us he brought us out here to kill us in the wilderness", when in reality God loved them and wanted to give them a land that they might dwell in, that it might be their land. Moses began his recital of Israels history at Horeb (Sinai) because this is where Yahweh adopted the nation by making the Mosaic Covenant with her. "The Deuteronomist, writing at a later period of the same arrangement [the mission of the spies in Numbers], represents the people proposing the measure to Moses, who on consideration resolved to execute it, because it approved itself to his heart and conscience: 'Ye came near unto me every one of you, and said, We will send men before us, and they shall search us out the land; and the saying pleased me well: and I took twelve men of you, one of a tribe.' ii., pp. Genesis 39: 2-6. It is long since the oracle declared that God had given Christ the heathen for his inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for his possession (Psalm 2:8). i. Such is the fertile topic which we find throughout the book. Still stubborn and disobedient, the people who would not go into Canaan with God then tried to conquer the country without him. This is clearly shown. Is there anything so wholesome! It is a call to obedience. (Deuteronomy 1:11 NKJV). The readers of the eastern interpreters will observe, that Kadesh is rendered by all Rekam, or in a sound very near it. Rekam, and that Double. "And they took of the fruit of the land in their hands, and brought it down unto us, and brought us word again, It is most instructive to note how exceedingly anxious the early Christians were, that, as soon as a man was converted, he should be "filled with the Holy Ghost." xlv. Not that this made the smallest cloud between Master and servant. "For what nation is there so great, who hath God so nigh unto them, as Jehovah our God is in all things that we call upon him for? But in Deuteronomy the point is to centralize them all around Jehovah Himself. It was after the golden calf, nay more than this; it was after the whole disciplinary dealings of Jehovah had now come to an end. For instance, a man knows perfectly well that he has no right to steal. It was "the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee." "Ye came near and stood under the mountain; and the mountain burned with fire in the midst of heaven, with darkness, clouds, and thick darkness.
