Deuteronomy 6:25
Deuteronomy 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.]
Deuteronomy 24:13
return <07725> [deliver.]
sunset <08121> [the sun.]
garment <08008> [in his own raiment.]
The raiment here referred to was most likely the same as the {hyke} of the Arabs, a long kind of blanket, resembling a Highland plaid, generally about six yards in length, and five or six feet broad; in which they often carry their provisions, as well as wrap themselves in, in the day, and sleep in at night, it being their only substitute for a bed. How necessary, then, it was to restore the {hyke} to a poor man before the going down of the sun, that he might have something to repose on, will sufficiently appear from these considerations.
just deed <06666> [shall be.]
Deuteronomy 33:21
best <07225> [the first part.]
portion <02513> [a portion.]
set aside <05603> [seated. Heb. cieled. he came.]
Deuteronomy 9:4-5
think <0559 03824> [Speak not.]
because of the wickedness <07564> [for the wickedness.]
righteousness <06666> [Not for.]
Though the Canaanites were expelled for their wickedness, it does not follow, that the Israelites were established in their room on account of any distinguished virtue, or because they deserved it. On many occasions, it may be seen in the history of the world, that God punishes the wicked by the instrumentality of other men, who are as wicked as themselves. Not the Israelites' righteousness, but the wickedness of the inhabitants, and the promise of God to their fathers, was the cause of their obtaining Canaan.
confirm <06965> [that he may.]
