Deuteronomy 1:26

Disobedience at Kadesh Barnea

1:26 You were not willing to go up, however, but instead rebelled against the Lord your God. ¹ 

Deuteronomy 30:14

30:14 For the thing is very near you – it is in your mouth and in your mind ²  so that you can do it.

Deuteronomy 32:1

Invocation of Witnesses

32:1 Listen, O heavens, and I will speak;

hear, O earth, the words of my mouth.

[1:26]  ¹ tn Heb “the mouth of the Lord your God.” To include “the mouth” would make for odd English style. The mouth stands by metonymy for the Lord’s command, which in turn represents the Lord himself.

[30:14]  ² tn Heb “heart.”
