Gill's Notes on the Bible
Because they obeyed not the voice of the Lord,.... In his law, and by his prophets:
but transgressed his covenant, and all that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded; which evils are at large insisted on in the preceding chapter as the cause of their captivity:
and would not hear them, nor do them; contrary to the agreement of their fathers at Sinai, who promised to do both, Exodus 24:3.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
These verses repeat the account given in the marginal reference. The extreme importance of the event may account for the double insertion.
