Now these are the commandments, the statues, and the judgments, which the LORD your God commanded to teach you, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go to possess it: That thou mightest fear the LORD thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son’s son, all the days of thy life;...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Now these are the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments, which the LORD your God commanded to teach you, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go to possess it: God’s commandments are to be taught, but they are also to be practiced: “which the Lord your God commanded to teach you, that ye might do them.” And it is this doing of them...

That thou mightest fear the LORD thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son’s son, all the days of thy life; and that thy days may be prolonged. The fear of God must always be a practical power in our lives: “that thou mightest fear the Lord thy God, to keep all his statutes and his...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do it; that it may will be with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as the LORD God of thy fathers hath promised thee, in the land that floweth with milk and honey. It seems, according to the old covenant, that temporal prosperity was appended as a blessing to the keeping of God’s commandments. It has...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do it; that it may be well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as the LORD God of thy fathers hath promised thee, in the land that floweth with milk and honey.

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD: This is the great doctrine that we learn, both from the Old and the New Testament there is one Lord. And this great truth has been burnt into the Jews by their long chastisement, and, whatever other mistakes they make, you never find them making a mistake about this. The Lord thy God is one Lord. May...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. It is not a little love that God deserves, nor is it a little love that he will accept. He blesses us with all his heart and all his might, and after that fashion are we to love him.
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. Does not this show what is the very nature of God? God is love, for he commands us to love him. There was never an earthly prince or king whom I have heard of in whose statute book it was written, “Thou shalt love the king.” No; it is only in...

The Word of God if not for some particular place called a church or a meeting...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: Oh, how blessed to have them written on the heart by the Holy Spirit. We can never get them there except he who made the heart anew shall engrave upon these fleshy tablets the divine precepts.
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, Christian parent, have you done this? “Thou shalt” not only teach them, but “teach them diligently unto thy children.” Deu_6:7. And shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. Our common talk should...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes. With thee in all thine actions — with thee in all thy thoughts —conspicuously with thee — not out of ostentation, but through thine obedience to become apparent unto all men.
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, They shall be thy practical guide, at thy fingers’ ends, as it were. Deu_6:8. And they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes. Thou shalt see by them, thou shalt see with them, thou shalt see through them.
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates. And it shall be, when the LORD thy God shall have brought thee into the land which he sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee great and goodly cities, which thou buildedst not, And the houses full of all good things, which thou filledst not,...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates. I could almost wish that this were literally fulfilled much more often than it is. I was charmed, in many a Swiss village, to see a text of Scripture carved on the door post. A text hung up in your houses may often speak when you are silent. We cannot do anything that shall...

Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God, and serve him, and shalt swear by his name. Ye shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the people which are round about you: (For the LORD thy God is a jealous God among you) He will have the heart all to himself. Two Gods he cannot endure. Of false gods, there may be many: of the true God there can be but...

Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God, and serve him, and shalt swear by his name. Ye shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the people which are round about you; (for the LORD thy God is a jealous God among you) lest the anger of the Lord thy God be kindled against thee, and destroy thee from off the face of the earth. Our God is a jealous God....

Lest the anger of the LORD thy God be kindled against thee, and destroy thee from off the face of the earth. Ye shall not tempt the LORD your God, as ye tempted him in Massah.
