For you are about to cross the Jordan
on Deuteronomy 11:31-32
Moses says "you are about to cross the Jordan" as a man who will stay behind. He gave the reason at 1:37, 3:26 and 4:21.
This site's exposition
the statutes and ordinances that
The pair statutes and ordinances opened this speech at 5:1, so chapters 5 to 11 sit between the two uses. Barnes reads chapters 12 to 26 as the Decalogue applied to worship, civil life and social life. Verse 32 hands the listener from one part to the next.
The record, by era
The Puritans and the Awakening1 voice
And ye shall observe to do all the statutes and judgments,.... Take notice of them, and heed unto them, so as to practise them: which I set before you this day; repeated in order to them, on the observance of which depended their continuance in the land of Canaan; and therefore this is so often repeated and urged.
