Contextual Overview

10 Ye stande this day euery one of you before the Lorde your God: your captaynes, your tribes, your elders, your officers, and all the men of Israel: 11 Your childre also, your wiues, and the straunger that is in thine hoast, from the hewer of thy wood, vnto the drawer of thy water: 12 That thou shouldest go into the couenaunt of the Lorde thy God, and into his othe which the Lorde thy God maketh with thee this day: 13 For to make thee a people vnto hym selfe, and that he may be vnto thee a God, as he hath sayde vnto thee, and as he hath sworne vnto thy fathers, Abraham, Isahac, and Iacob. 14 I make not this bonde and this othe with you only: 15 But both with hym that standeth here with vs this day before the Lorde our God, and also with hym that is not here with vs this day. 16 For ye knowe howe we haue dwelt in the lande of Egypt, and howe we came through the myddes of the nations which ye passed by: 17 And ye haue seene their abhominations, and their idols, wood and stone, siluer and golde, which were among them. 18 Lest there be among you man or woman, kinrede or tribe, whose heart turneth away this day from the Lorde our God, to go and serue the gods of these nations: and lest there be among you some roote that beareth gall and wormewood. 19 So that when he heareth the wordes of this othe, he blesse hym selfe in his heart, saying: I shall haue peace, I wyll walke in the meanyng of myne owne heart: to put the drunken to the thirstie.

Bible Verse Review

thou shouldest: Deuteronomy 5:2, Deuteronomy 5:3, Exodus 19:5, Exodus 19:6, Joshua 24:25, 2 Kings 11:17, 2 Chronicles 15:12-15

enter: Heb. pass, This is an allusion to the solemn ceremony used by several ancient nations, when they entered into a covenant with each other. The victims, slain as a sacrifice on this occasion, were divided, and and parts laid asunder: the contracting parties then passed between them, imprecating, as a curse on those who violated the sacred compact, that they might in like manner be cut asunder - Genesis 15:10. St. Cyril, in his work against Julian, shows that passing between the divided parts of a victim was used also among the Chaldeans and other people.

into his oath: Deuteronomy 29:14, 2 Chronicles 15:12-15, Nehemiah 10:28, Nehemiah 10:29

Reciprocal: Genesis 24:41 - General Exodus 34:10 - I make Deuteronomy 28:9 - sworn Deuteronomy 29:19 - this curse Joshua 9:6 - make ye Ezra 10:3 - let us make Jeremiah 34:18 - when Ezekiel 16:20 - thy sons Ezekiel 17:15 - Shall he prosper Mark 10:14 - Suffer Acts 5:14 - multitudes Acts 21:5 - with Hebrews 8:9 - the covenant Hebrews 9:20 - testament

Gill's Notes on the Bible

That thou shouldest enter into covenant with the Lord thy God,.... That is, they were all to appear and stand in this order before the Lord, that they might solemnly avouch him to be their God, and hear him declaring them to be his people, and the many promises and prophecies of good things he should deliver to them, as well as threatenings of wrath and vengeance in case of disobedience to him: or "that thou shouldest pass" e: which some think is an allusion to the manner of making covenants, by slaying a creature, and cutting it in pieces, and passing between them, as in Jeremiah 34:18; so Jarchi and Aben Ezra:

and into his oath; annexed to his covenant and promise, to show the immutability and certain fulfilment of it on his part; and may signify not only the oath he swore that they should be his people, but the oath he gave them, and they took, that he should be their God:

which the Lord thy God maketh with thee this day; which refers both to the covenant and the oath, or the covenant confirmed by an oath, even the covenant now made in the plains of Moab, distinct from that at Horeb or Sinai.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Deuteronomy 29:12. That thou shouldest enter — לעבר leaber, to pass through, that is, between the separated parts of the covenant sacrifice. Genesis 15:18; Genesis 15:18.

And into his oath — Thus we find that in a covenant were these seven particulars:

1. The parties about to contract were considered as being hitherto separated.

2. They now agree to enter into a state of close and permanent amity. 3. They meet together in a solemn manner for this purpose.

4. A sacrifice is offered to God on the occasion, for the whole is a religious act.

5. The victim is separated exactly into two equal parts, the separation being in the direction of the spine; and those parts are laid opposite to each other, sufficient room being allowed for the contracting parties to pass between them.

6. The contracting parties meet in the victim, and the conditions of the covenant by which they are to be mutually bound are recited.

7. An oath is taken by these parties that they shall punctually and faithfully perform their respective conditions, and thus the covenant is made and ratified. See Jeremiah 34:18-19, and Clarke's notes on "Genesis 6:18"; "Genesis 15:18"; "Exodus 29:45"; Leviticus 26:44-45.
