Deuteronomy 30:10 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 30:10

If thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God
Or rather, "for thou shalt hearken" F16; seeing it is before promised that the Lord would circumcise their hearts to love him, and they should obey his voice, ( Deuteronomy 30:6 Deuteronomy 30:8 ) . The Targum is,

``receive the Word of the Lord:''

to keep his commandments and his statutes, which are written in this
book of the law;
particularly in this chapter, and all that are of a moral nature:

[and] if thou return unto the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and
with all thy soul;
or, "for thou shall return" as it is promised they should, ( Deuteronomy 30:8 ) .

Deuteronomy 30:10 In-Context

8 And thou shalt return and obey the voice of the LORD, and do all His commandments which I command thee this day.
9 And the LORD thy God will make thee plenteous in every work of thine hand, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy land, for good. For the LORD will again rejoice over thee for good, as He rejoiced over thy fathers,
10 if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God to keep His commandments and His statutes which are written in this Book of the Law, and if thou turn unto the LORD thy God with all thine heart and with all thy soul.
11 "For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not hidden from thee, neither is it far off.
12 It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say, `Who shall go up for us to heaven and bring it unto us, that we may hear it and do it?'
