Deuteronomy 30:10 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 30:10

If thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God
Or rather, "for thou shalt hearken" ^F16; seeing it is before promised that the Lord would circumcise their hearts to love him, and they should obey his voice, ( Deuteronomy 30:6 Deuteronomy 30:8 ) . The Targum is,

``receive the Word of the Lord:''

to keep his commandments and his statutes, which are written in this
book of the law;
particularly in this chapter, and all that are of a moral nature:

[and] if thou return unto the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and
with all thy soul;
or, "for thou shall return" as it is promised they should, ( Deuteronomy 30:8 ) .

Deuteronomy 30:10 In-Context

8 And you will make a new start, listening obediently to God, keeping all his commandments that I'm commanding you today.

9 God, your God, will outdo himself in making things go well for you: you'll have babies, get calves, grow crops, and enjoy an all-around good life. Yes, God will start enjoying you again, making things go well for you just as he enjoyed doing it for your ancestors.

10 But only if you listen obediently to God, your God, and keep the commandments and regulations written in this Book of Revelation. Nothing halfhearted here; you must return to God, your God, totally, heart and soul, holding nothing back.

11 This commandment that I'm commanding you today isn't too much for you, it's not out of your reach.

12 It's not on a high mountain - you don't have to get mountaineers to climb the peak and bring it down to your level and explain it before you can live it.
