Deuteronomy 4:30 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 4:30

When thou art in tribulation
In a strange land, in the power of a foreign enemy, and used ill:

and all these things are come upon thee;
captivity, thraldom, hard labour, and want of the necessaries of life:

[even] in the latter days:
in their present captivity for the rejection of the Messiah:

if thou turn to the Lord thy God;
as the Jews will when they are converted and brought to a sense of their sin, and of their need of Christ, and seek to him as their Saviour, as they will do in the latter day, ( Hosea 3:5 ) ( 2 Corinthians 3:16 )

and shall be obedient unto his voice;
not of the law only, but of the Gospel also, proclaiming peace, pardon, righteousness, and salvation by him whom they have pierced.
