Tafsiran/Catatan -- Catatan Kata/Frasa (per frasa)

Clarke: Deu 5:33 - Ye shall walk in all the ways, etc.

Ye shall walk in all the ways, etc. - God never gave a commandment to man which he did not design that he should obey. He who selects from the Divine testimonies such precepts as he feels but little inclination to transgress, and lives in the breach of others, sins against the grand legislative authority of God, and shall be treated as a rebel

Clarke: Deu 5:33 - That ye may live

That ye may live - תחיון ticheyun , that ye may enjoy life, (for the paragogic nun, at the end of the word, deepens the sense), that it may be well with you ותוב לכם vetob lachem , and good shall be to you - God will prosper you in all things essential to the welfare of your bodies, and the salvation of your souls

Clarke: Deu 5:33 - That ye may prolong your days in the land

That ye may prolong your days in the land - That ye may arrive at a good old age, and grow more and more meet for the inheritance among the saints in light

On this very important verse we may remark, a long life is a great blessing, if a man live to God, because it is in life, and in life alone, that a preparation for eternal glory may be acquired. Those who wish to die soon, have never yet learned to live, and know not the value of life or time. Many have a vain hope that they shall get either in death, or in the other world, a preparation for glory. This is a fatal error. Here, alone, we may acquaint ourselves with God, and receive that holiness without which none can see him. Reader, be thankful to him that thou art still in a state of probation; and pray that thou mayest live for eternity.

Gill: Deu 5:33 - Ye shall walk in all the ways which the Lord your God hath commanded you // and that it may be well with you, and that ye may prolong your days in the land which ye shall possess

Ye shall walk in all the ways which the Lord your God hath commanded you,.... None are to be avoided or departed from on any consideration whatever; see Psa 119:6 an instance of this we have in Zacharias and Elizabeth, Luk 1:6 that ye may live; corporeally, comfortably, in all the outward enjoyments of life needful for them, particularly in the possession of the land of Canaan, and the benefits of it; for these promises of life upon obedience seem to reach no further, unless as types and emblems of what is enjoyed through the obedience and righteousness of Christ, as the following phrases show:

and that it may be well with you, and that ye may prolong your days in the land which ye shall possess; the land of Canaan; though the Jewish writers ^m carry it further, even to heaven and eternal happiness; and so may we in the sense before given.
