Deuteronomy 1:1
Transjordanian <05676> [on this.]
Suph ... Paran <05489 06290> [Red sea. or, Zuph. Or rather, Suph.]
This could not have been the Red Sea, not only because the word {yam,} "sea," is not joined with it as usual, but because they were now east of Jordan, and farther from the Red Sea than ever. It seems to be the same which is called {Suphah} in Nu 21:14; which must necessarily signify some place in or adjoining to the plains of Moab, and not far from the Jordan and Arnon. Ptolemy mentions a people called Sophonites that dwelt in Arabia Petr‘a, who may have taken their name from this place.
Paran <06290> [Paran.]
Paran, Tophel, Laban, Hazeroth, and Dizahab, seem to have been either places or cities not far from the plains of Moab; for it is evident that Paran and Hazeroth could not have been those near the Red sea, and not far from Horeb.
Hazeroth <02698> [Hazeroth.]
Deuteronomy 19:3
Deuteronomy 27:15
Cursed .... one <0779 0376> [Cursed be.]
makes <06213> [maketh.]
something abhorrent <08441> [an abomination.]
sets it up <07760> [and putteth.]
people <05971> [And all.]
Amen <0543> [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 neighbour from breaking these laws, and to reprove those that had offended, lest they should bear sin and the curse for them.
Deuteronomy 28:57
afterbirth <07988> [young one. Heb. after-birth. cometh out.]
eat <0398> [for she shall.]
Deuteronomy 31:2
hundred <03967> [I am an.]
The life of Moses, the great prophet of Jehovah and lawgiver of the Jews, was exactly the same in length as the time Noah employed in preaching righteousness to the antediluvian world. These one hundred and twenty years were divided into three remarkable periods. Forty years he lived in Egypt, in the court of Pharaoh, acquiring all the learning and wisdom of the Egyptians (Ac 7:20, 23); forty years he sojourned in Midian, in a state of preparation for his great and important mission (Ac 7:29, 30); and forty years he guided, led, and governed the Israelites under the express direction and authority of God: in all 120 years.
able ... get <03201 03318> [I can no more.]
cross <05674> [Thou shalt not.]
