Gill's Notes on the Bible

These are the statutes and judgments which ye shall observe to do,.... Which are recorded in this and the following chapters; here a new discourse begins, and which perhaps was delivered at another time, and respects things that were to be observed:

in the land which the Lord God of thy fathers giveth thee to possess it; the land of Canaan, often described by this circumlocution, to put them in mind that it was promised to their fathers by their covenant God, was his gift to them, and which they would quickly be in the possession of; and therefore when in it should be careful to observe the statutes and judgments of God constantly:

[even] all the days that ye live upon the earth; or land, the land of Canaan; for though there were some laws binding upon them, live where they would, there were others peculiar to the land of Canaan, which they were to observe as long as they and their posterity lived there; see 1 Kings 8:40.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Moses now passes on to apply Deut. 12–26 the leading principles of the Decalogue to the ecclesiastical, civil, and social life of the people. Particulars will be noticed which are unique to the Law as given in Deuteronomy; and even in laws repeated from the earlier books various new circumstances and details are introduced. This is only natural. The Sinaitic legislation was nearly 40 years old and had been given under conditions of time, place, and circumstance different and distant from those now present. Yet the Sinaitic system, far from being set aside or in any way abrogated, is on the contrary throughout presupposed and assumed. Its existence and authority are taken as the starting-point for what is here prescribed, and an accurate acquaintance with it on the part of the people is taken for granted.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XII

All monuments of idolatry in the promised land to be destroyed,

1-3;

and God's service to be duly performed, 4-7.

The difference between the performance of that service in the

wilderness and in the promised land, 8-11.

The people are to be happy in all their religious observances,

12.

The offerings must be brought to the place which God appoints,

and no blood is to be eaten, 13-16.

The tithe of corn, wine, oil, &c., to be eaten in the place that

God shall choose, 17, 18.

The Levite must not be forsaken, 19.

All clean beasts may be eaten, but the blood must be poured out

before the Lord, and be eaten on no pretence whatever, 29-25.

Of vows, burnt-offerings, &c., 26, 27.

These precepts are to be carefully obeyed, 28.

Cautions against the abominations of the heathen, 29-31.

Nothing to be added to or diminished from the word of God, 32.
