Deuteronomy 11:22 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 11:22

For if ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which
I command you to do them
Observe and take notice of them, even all of them, and so as not merely to have a theory or notional knowledge of them, but to put them in practice:

to love the Lord your God;
and show it by obeying his commands, and which is the end of the commandment, and the principle from which all obedience should flow:

to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him;
see ( Deuteronomy 10:12 Deuteronomy 10:20 ) .

22 For if you will be careful to do all this commandment that I command you to do, loving the LORD your God, walking in all his ways, and holding fast to him,
