the foregoing chapter; while the next verse begins another
view of the subject.

- And know.
Moses seems here to have addressed himself particularly to the
elders, who had in their youth witnessed the wonderful works
which Jehovah had wrought both for them and among them; and
who were bound to remember them for their own warning, and
testify them to the rising generation who had not been
eye-witnesses.

VERSE 10
- wateredst it with thy foot.
Rain seldom falls in Egypt; the land being chiefly watered by
the inundations of the Nile. In order to water the grounds
where the inundations do not extend, water is collected in
ponds, and directed in streamlets to the different parts of
the field where irrigation is necessary. It is no unusual
thing in the East to see a man, with a small mattock, making a
little trench for the water to run into; and, as he opens the
passage, the water following, he uses his foot to raise up the
mould against the side of this little channel, to prevent the
water from being shed unnecessarily, before it reaches the
place of its destination. Hence he may justly be said to
water the ground with his foot.

- Gerizim.
Gerizim and Ebal, mountains west of Jordan, and in the tribe
of Ephraim, are opposite, or parallel to each other, extending
from east to west; mount Gerizim being on the south, and mount
Ebal on the north. They are separated by the beautiful valley
in which Shechem or Nablous is situated, which is only about
200 paces in width. Both mountains are much alike in length,
height, and figure; being about a league in length, in the
form of a semicircle, and so steep, on the side of Shechem,
that there is scarcely any shelving: their altitude appeared
to Mr. Buckingham nearly equal, not exceeding 700 or 800 feet
from the level of the valley, which is itself elevated. But
though they resemble each other in these particulars, yet in
another they are very dissimilar; for, says Maundrell, "though
neither of the mountains has much to boast of as to its
pleasantness, yet, as one passes between them, Gerizim seems
to discover a somewhat more verdant, fruitful aspect then
Ebal: the reason of which may be, because fronting towards
the north, it is sheltered from the heat of the sun by its own
shade; whereas Ebal, looking southward, and receiving the sun
that comes directly upon it, must by consequence be rendered
more scorched and unfruitful."
