10 Vós todos estais hoje perante o Senhor vosso Deus: os vossos cabeças, as vossas tribos, os vossos anciãos e os vossos oficiais, a saber, todos os homens de Israel,

Deuteronômio 29:10 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 29:10

Ye stand this day all of you before the Lord your God
Being gathered together at the door of the tabernacle, at the summons of Moses. Aben Ezra interprets it round about the ark, which was the symbol of the divine Presence:

your captains of your tribes;
the heads and rulers of them:

your elders and your officers, [with] all the men of Israel;
not the seventy elders only, but their elders in their several tribes, cities, and families, men of gravity and prudence, as well as of age, and who were in some place of power and authority or another: and the "officers" may design such who attended the judges, and executed their orders; see ( Deuteronomy 16:18 ) ; and with them were the common people, the males, who were grown persons. Aben Ezra thinks they stood in the order in which they here are mentioned, which is not improbable; next to Moses the princes, then the elders, and after them the officers, and next every man of Israel, the males; and then the little ones with the males; after them the women, and last of all the proselytes.

Deuteronômio 29:10 In-Context

8 e lhes tomamos a terra, e a demos por herança aos rubenitas, aos gaditas e � meia tribo dos manassitas.
9 Guardai, pois, as palavras deste pacto e cumpri-as, para que prospereis em tudo quanto fizerdes.
10 Vós todos estais hoje perante o Senhor vosso Deus: os vossos cabeças, as vossas tribos, os vossos anciãos e os vossos oficiais, a saber, todos os homens de Israel,
11 os vossos pequeninos, as vossas mulheres, e o estrangeiro que está no meio do vosso arraial, tanto o rachador da vossa lenha como o tirador da vossa água;
12 para entrardes no pacto do Senhor vosso Deus, e no seu juramento que o Senhor vosso Deus hoje faz convosco;
