  1  The people are commanded to write the law upon stones,
 5  and to build an altar of whole stones.
11  The tribes to be divided on Gerizim and Ebal.
14  The curses to be pronounced on mount Ebal.


VERSE 1
- Keep all.  See on ch.
   * De 4:1-3; 11:32; 26:16 Lu 11:28 Joh 15:14 1Th 4:1,2 Jas 2:10


VERSE 2 
 - on the day.
   * De 6:1; 9:1; 11:31 Jos 1:11; 4:1,5-24
- unto the.
   * :3; 26:1
- great stones.
   * Eze 11:19; 36:26
- and plaister.
  Houbigant and others are of opinion that the original words,
  {wesadta othom beseed}, should be rendered "thou shalt cement
  them with cement," because this was intended to be a durable
  monument.  Some suppose that the writing was to be in relievo,
  and that the spaces were to be filled up by the mortar or
  cement; as is frequently the case with eastern inscriptions.


VERSE 3 
 - thou shalt.
   * Jos 8:32 Jer 31:31-33 2Co 3:2,3 Heb 8:6-10; 10:16
- this law.
  This law probably means only the blessings and curses
  mentioned in this and the following chapter; which indeed
  contain an epitome of the whole law.

- a land.  See on ch.
   * De 6:8; 26:9 Le 20:24 Nu 13:27; 14:8 Jos 5:6 Jer 11:5; 32:22


VERSE 4 
 - in mount Ebal.
  The Samaritan text has in mount Gerizim; which has given rise
  to a violent controversy.  Dr. Kennicott suppose that the Jews
  corrupted this passage out of their enmity to the Samaritans,
  who had their temple on mount Gerizim; while Dr. Parry and H.
  Verschuir defend the present reading:  to the writings of
  these authors the reader is referred.

   * De 11:29,30 Jos 8:30-33


VERSE 5 
 - And there.
   * Ex 24:4 Jos 8:30,31 1Ki 18:31,32

VERSE 11


VERSE 12 
 - upon mount Gerizim.
  Mount Gerizim and mount Ebal being only separated by a narrow
  valley, not above a furlong broad, what was spoken with a loud
  voice on the one might be heard on the other, (See Jud 9:7.)
  It is probable, however, that the particle {ƒl} should be
  rendered by, as it frequently signifies; for when this
  direction was reduced to practice, (Jos 8:33,) it seems that
  the people did not stand on the mountains, but over against
  them in the plain.  But the Talmud says, that six tribes went
  up on each, while the priest and Levites and the ark remained
  beneath.

   * De 11:26-29 Jos 8:33,34 Jud 9:7
- Simeon.
   * Ge 29:33-35; 30:18,24; 35:18


VERSE 13 
 - mount Ebal.  See on ver.
   * :4; 11:29 Jos 8:33
- to curse.  Heb. for a cursing.  Reuben.
   * Ge 29:32; 30:6-13,20; 49:3,4

VERSE 14
    * De 33:9,10 Jos 8:33 Ne 8:7,8 Da 9:11 Mal 2:7-9


VERSE 15 
 - Cursed be.
   * De 28:16-19 Ge 9:25 1Sa 26:19 Jer 11:3
- maketh.  See on ch.
   * De 4:16-23; 5:8 Ex 20:4,23; 32:1-4; 34:17 Le 19:4; 26:1
   * Isa 44:9,10,17 Ho 13:2,3
- an abomination.
   * De 29:17 1Ki 11:5-7 2Ki 23:13 2Ch 33:2 Isa 44:19 Eze 7:20
   * Da 11:31 Mt 24:15 Re 17:4,5
- and putteth.
   * Ge 31:19,34 2Ki 17:19 Ps 44:20,21 Jer 23:24 Eze 8:7-12; 14:4
- And all.  See on
   * Nu 5:22 Jer 11:5; 28:6 Mt 6:13 1Co 14:16
- Amen.
  To each of the curses the people were to say Amen, as well as
  to the blessings; to denote a profession of their faith in the
  truth of them, that they were the real declarations of the
  wrath of God; and an acknowledgement of the equity of these
  curses.  It was such an imprecation upon themselves, as
  strongly obliged them to have nothing to do with those evil
  practices on which the curse is entailed.  We read of those
  who entered a curse to walk in God's law.  Ne 10:29.  All the
  people, by saying this Amen, became bound one for another,
  that they would observe God's laws, by which every man was
  obliged, as far as he could, to prevent his neighbor from
  breaking these laws, and to reprove those that had offended,
  lest they should bear sin and the curse for them.
