Gill's Notes on the Bible

Furthermore the Lord was angry with me for your sakes,.... See Deuteronomy 3:26:

and sware that I should not go over Jordan; this circumstance of swearing is nowhere else expressed:

and that I should not go in unto that good land; the land of Canaan; he might see it, as he did from Pisgah, but not enter into it:

which the Lord thy God giveth thee for an inheritance; to them and to their children after them.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Deuteronomy 4:21. The Lord was angry with me — And if with me, so as to debar me from entering into the promised land, can you think to escape if guilty of greater provocations?
