Deuteronômio 5:28 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 5:28

And the Lord heard the voice of your word, when ye spake unto
me
Not only in a general way, as he hears and knows all that is spoken by men; for there is not a word on the tongue, formed upon it, and uttered by it, but what is altogether known to him; but in a special and particular manner observed, took notice of, approved, and was well pleased with what these people said:

and the Lord said unto me, I have heard the voice of the words of this
people which they have spoken unto thee;
not only heard the sound of them, but took notice of the sense and meaning of them, and listened to them with pleasure and delight:

they have well said all that they have spoken;
expressing such an awe and reverence of the divine Majesty, desiring to have a mediator between God and them, and purposing and promising to hearken to and obey whatsoever he should command by him.

Deuteronômio 5:28 In-Context

26 Porque, quem há de toda a carne, que tenha ouvido a voz do Deus vivente a falar do meio do fogo, como nós a ouvimos, e ainda continue vivo?
27 Chega-te tu, e ouve tudo o que o Senhor nosso Deus falar; e tu nos dirás tudo o que ele te disser; assim o ouviremos e o cumpriremos.
28 Ouvindo, pois, o Senhor as vossas palavras, quando me faláveis, disse-me: Eu ouvi as palavras deste povo, que eles te disseram; falaram bem em tudo quanto disseram.
29 Quem dera que eles tivessem tal coração que me temessem, e guardassem em todo o tempo todos os meus mandamentos, para que bem lhes fosse a eles, e a seus filhos para sempre!
30 Vai, dize-lhes: Voltai �s vossas tendas.
