What does Deuteronomy 27:26 mean?
John Gill's Exposition of the Bible
Deuteronomy
27:26
Cursed [be] he that confirmeth not [all] the words of
this
law to do them
That is, who does not perfectly perform all that the law
requires, and continues to do so; for the law requires obedience,
and that perfect and constant, and in failure thereof curses, in
proof of which the apostle produces this passage, (See Gill on
Galatians 3:10), for the reconciliation of these
Scriptures, as to what seeming difference there is between them;
and all the people shall say, Amen; (See Gill on
Deuteronomy 27:15); (See Gill on
Deuteronomy 27:16).
