Deuteronomy 4:39 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 4:39

Know therefore this day, and consider it in thine heart
Own and acknowledge it now with thy mouth, and lay it up and consider it in thine heart hereafter, as a truth of the greatest importance to be professed and held fast, and to be thought of and meditated upon continually, and never to be forgotten:

that the Lord he is God in heaven above,
and upon the earth beneath; that he has made both, and is the possessor and Lord of them, and does what he pleases with them; that the one is his throne, his dwelling place, and the other his footstool; and that the inhabitants of both are his creatures, and under his authority and command, and he can dispose of them as he pleases:

[there is] none else;
no God in heaven or in earth beside him.

Deuteronomy 4:39 In-Context

37 He loved your people long ago. He chose their children after them. So he brought you out of Egypt. He used his great strength to do it.
38 He drove out nations to make room for you. They were greater and stronger than you are. He will bring you into their land. He wants to give it to you as your very own. The whole land is as good as yours right now.
39 The LORD is God in heaven above and on the earth below. Today you must agree with that and take it to heart. There is no other God.
40 I'm giving you his rules and commands today. Obey them. Then things will go well with you and your children after you. You will live a long time in the land. The LORD your God is giving you the land for all time to come.
41 I set apart three cities east of the Jordan River.
