De 29:1-29.
AN EXHORTATION TO OBEDIENCE.
1. These are the words of the covenant--The discourse of Moses is continued, and the subject of that discourse was Israel's covenant with God, the privileges it conferred, and the obligations it imposed.
beside the covenant which he made with them in Horeb--It was substantially the same; but it was renewed now, in different circumstances. They had violated its conditions. Moses rehearses these, that they might have a better knowledge of its conditions and be more disposed to comply with them.

2. 摩西召了以色列众人……你们都看见了耶和华所行的一切事等——这番诉诸百姓经历的呼吁，虽是笼统而发，却只适用于出埃及时尚且年幼、记得那时代前后所发生奇事的那一部分人。然而，唉！那些奇事对他们并没有留下良好的印象
(申 29:4)。
他们对那赐给一切求告者之恩典的智慧毫无所知；既有许多神迹在他们中间行过，足以使他们确信神与他们同在、同有大能，他们的麻木就更无可推诿。他们的衣服和鞋子没有穿坏，每日的食物和清水的供应不断——这些在旷野漂流的多年间从未中断或减少。这些神迹无可置疑地宣告了神亲自的作为，并且专为训练他们对神有实际的认识和惯常的信靠。他们既经历这奇妙的恩典与看顾，又记得神使他们几乎不费力、不损一兵一卒便获得了所站之地上宝贵的疆域，这些辉煌的胜利在这里再次被提及，以促使他们信实地持守圣约，因为这是得着其应许之福的直接而稳妥的途径。

2. Moses called unto all Israel, . . . Ye have seen all that the Lord did, &c.--This appeal to the experience of the people, though made generally, was applicable only to that portion of them who had been very young at the period of the Exodus, and who remembered the marvellous transactions that preceded and followed that era. Yet, alas! those wonderful events made no good impression upon them
(De 29:4).
They were strangers to that grace of wisdom which is liberally given to all who ask it; and their insensibility was all the more inexcusable that so many miracles had been performed which might have led to a certain conviction of the presence and the power of God with them. The preservation of their clothes and shoes, the supply of daily food and fresh water--these continued without interruption or diminution during so many years' sojourn in the desert. They were miracles which unmistakably proclaimed the immediate hand of God and were performed for the express purpose of training them to a practical knowledge of, and habitual confidence in, Him. Their experience of this extraordinary goodness and care, together with their remembrance of the brilliant successes by which, with little exertion or loss on their part, God enabled them to acquire the valuable territory on which they stood, is mentioned again to enforce a faithful adherence to the covenant, as the direct and sure means of obtaining its promised blessings.

10-29. 你们今日都站在耶和华你们的神面前——以色列全会众，无论年龄身分，全都聚集——年少的与年长的；仆人与主人；本国的以色列人与归化的外人——都站在会幕前，要更新西奈之约。他们之中无人可自视为免于此国家盟约的条款，恐怕有人陷入偶像崇拜，成为苦根，散播其毒素并腐蚀周围一切（参
来 12:15)。
如此触及每个人的心灵与良心至为重要，因为有人或会以虚妄之念自欺，以为只要起誓
(申 29:12)
与神立约，就必稳得约中之福。于是他们即使不严格遵行祂的敬拜与诫命，反倒随从自己心中的筹算和倾向，仍会以为神会对此等放任视而不见、不予追究。给众人留下深刻而持久的印象至为重要：恩典之约虽有专属的特别福分，但同时也为干犯者存留咒诅，其降罚之确定、持久与严厉，毫不稍减。这正是律法第二次复述所预期的益处。一幅曾经富庶繁荣之地因居民的罪而被毁坏、遭咒诅的画面，十分触目，足以唤起一切善思者的敬畏。巴勒斯坦如今正是、且长久以来就是这般荒凉；凡观看其倾圮的城邑、败坏的海岸、光秃的山岭、贫瘠焦干的土壤——这一切可悲而无可置疑的证据表明此地在咒诅之下——许多来自欧洲、美洲、东印度（"远方来的外人"，
申 29:22)
的旅客，在今日都看见耶和华已经执行了祂的警告。谁能抗拒这一结论：这一切之所以临到，是"因为居民离弃了耶和华他们列祖神的约……耶和华的怒气向这地发作，将这书上所写的一切咒诅都降在这地上"？

10-29. Ye stand this day all of you before the Lord your God--The whole congregation of Israel, of all ages and conditions, all--young as well as old; menials as well as masters; native Israelites as well as naturalized strangers--all were assembled before the tabernacle to renew the Sinaitic covenant. None of them were allowed to consider themselves as exempt from the terms of that national compact, lest any lapsing into idolatry might prove a root of bitterness, spreading its noxious seed and corrupt influence all around (compare
Heb 12:15).
It was of the greatest consequence thus to reach the heart and conscience of everyone, for some might delude themselves with the vain idea that by taking the oath
(De 29:12)
by which they engaged themselves in covenant with God, they would surely secure its blessings. Then, even though they would not rigidly adhere to His worship and commands, but would follow the devices and inclinations of their own hearts, yet they would think that He would wink at such liberties and not punish them. It was of the greatest consequence to impress all with the strong and abiding conviction, that while the covenant of grace had special blessings belonging to it, it at the same time had curses in reserve for transgressors, the infliction of which would be as certain, as lasting and severe. This was the advantage contemplated in the law being rehearsed a second time. The picture of a once rich and flourishing region, blasted and doomed in consequence of the sins of its inhabitants, is very striking, and calculated to awaken awe in every reflecting mind. Such is, and long has been, the desolate state of Palestine; and, in looking at its ruined cities, its blasted coast, its naked mountains, its sterile and parched soil--all the sad and unmistakable evidences of a land lying under a curse--numbers of travellers from Europe, America, and the Indies ("strangers from a far country,"
De 29:22)
in the present day see that the Lord has executed His threatening. Who can resist the conclusion that it has been inflicted "because the inhabitants had forsaken the covenant of the Lord God of their fathers. . . . and the anger of the Lord was kindled against this land, to bring upon it all the curses that are written in this book"?

29. 隐秘的事是属耶和华我们神的——本节与上下文的脉络没有明显的联系。据认为是针对他们惊讶的目光或询问的话语——他们是否会如此邪恶以致该受这样的刑罚——而说的。神对以色列护理之工的记载历史，呈现出"恩慈与严厉"的奇妙交织。其中许多深藏于我们有限的容量所无法测度的奥秘之中；但鉴于已向我们显明的那部分所彰显的全面智慧，我们已预备好完全进入使徒的赞叹——"祂的判断何其难测"
(罗 11:33)。

29. The secret things belong unto the Lord--This verse has no apparent connection with the thread of discourse. It is thought to have been said in answer to the looks of astonishment or the words of inquiry as to whether they would be ever so wicked as to deserve such punishments. The recorded history of God's providential dealings towards Israel presents a wonderful combination of "goodness and severity." There is much of it involved in mystery too profound for our limited capacities to fathom; but, from the comprehensive wisdom displayed in those parts which have been made known to us, we are prepared to enter into the full spirit of the apostle's exclamation, "How unsearchable are his judgments"
(Ro 11:33).
申 29:1-29。
劝勉顺服。
1. 这是立约的话——摩西的讲论在此延续，其主题就是以色列与神所立的约、这约所赐的特权，以及所加的责任。
除了在何烈山所立的约之外——这约在实质上是相同的，只是如今在不同处境下重新坚立。他们既已违犯了约的条件，摩西便将这些条件重述一番，使他们对其条件有更深的认识，并更乐意遵行。
