Now therefore, in the sight of all Israel, the congregation of
the Lord
Whom this assembly represented:
and in the audience of our God;
before him, as Jarchi, in whose presence they were, and who heard and saw all that passed, and to whom David appeals as a witness; the Targum is,
``before the Word of the Lord.''before whom all things are naked and open, ( Hebrews 4:12 Hebrews 4:13 )
keep and seek for all the commandments of the Lord your God;
seek to know them, search for them in the word of God, and endeavour to keep them:
that ye may possess this good land;
continue in the possession of it, for by their obedience they held it, ( Isaiah 1:19 )
and leave it for an inheritance for your children after you for ever;
that so they might not be removed from it, and carried captive into other lands, as they were for their disobedience.
