Deuteronomy 31:16-17

31:16

die <07901> [thou shalt.]

die <07901> [sleep. Heb. lie down.]

{Shochaiv,} "lying down:" it signifies to rest, take rest in sleep, and metaphorically, to die. Though much stress cannot be safely laid upon this expression to prove the immortality of the soul, or that the people, in the time of Moses, had a distinct notion of its separate existence; yet is was understood in this sense by Jonathan, who paraphrases the words thus: "Thou shalt lie down in the dust with thy fathers; and thy soul {nishmatoch) shall be laid up in the treasury of the life to come, with thy fathers."

prostitute <02181> [and go a.]

reject .... break <05800 06565> [forsake me.]

break ... covenant <06565 01285> [break my.]

31:17

anger <0639> [my anger.]

abandon <05800> [I will forsake.]

hide ... face <06440 05641> [hide my face.]

Though this may allude to the withdrawing of the {Shechinah,} or visible appearance of Jehovah, yet the general meaning of the expression in Scripture is, the withdrawing of his approbation and protection, of which his visible appearance was formerly the sign and pledge.

[befal them. Heb. find them.]

disasters <07451> [Are not these.]

Deuteronomy 9:6-9

9:6

Understand <03045> [Understand.]

give .... good <05414 02896> [giveth thee.]

Moses repeats this a third time, that, if it were possible, he might root out of the Israelites the opinion of their own deserts, before God rooted out the Canaanites from their country.

stubborn <06203> [a stiff-necked.]

9:7

Remember <02142> [Remember.]

In order to destroy the opinion which the Israelites had of their own righteousness, it was necessary to call to mind some of their most notorious provocations and rebellions, which Moses exhorts them to preserve in their mind, as a means to keep them humble.

from ... time <04480 03117> [from the day.]

9:8

Horeb <02722> [Also in Horeb.]

Or rather, "Even at Horeb," for there is a peculiar emphasis here, even there where they had lately received the law, attended with the most astonishing appearances and circumstances.
