Deut. 1:1• 1These be the words which Moses spake unto all Israel on this side Jordan in the wilderness, in the plain over against the Red sea, between Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, and Dizahab. (Deut. 1:1)
;
Deut. 29:2,10• 2And Moses called unto all Israel, and said unto them, Ye have seen all that the Lord did before your eyes in the land of Egypt unto Pharaoh, and unto all his servants, and unto all his land;
 10Ye stand this day all of you before the Lord your God; your captains of your tribes, your elders, and your officers, with all the men of Israel, (Deut. 29:2,10)
Hear.
Deut. 4:1• 1Now therefore hearken, O Israel, unto the statutes and unto the judgments, which I teach you, for to do them, that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which the Lord God of your fathers giveth you. (Deut. 4:1)
keep, and.
Heb. keep to.
Matt. 23:3• 3All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not. (Matt. 23:3)
• Let us carefully note these four words, so specially characteristic of the book of Deuteronomy, and so seasonable for the Lord’s people, at all times and in all places — “Hear” — “Learn” — “Keep” — “Do.” (“Deuteronomy 5” by C.H. Mackintosh)
• It was their one simple business to “hear” — “learn” — “keep” — and “do” the revealed will of God; and so doing, they might count on Him, with all possible confidence, to be their shield, their strength, their safeguard, their refuge, their resource, their all in all. (“Deuteronomy 5” by C.H. Mackintosh)
• The hearing ear lies at the very foundation of all true, practical Christian life. It places the soul in the only true and proper attitude for the creature. (“Deuteronomy 5” by C.H. Mackintosh)
• Man is formed to obey — formed to look up to some one above him. The Christian is sanctified unto the obedience of Jesus Christ — that is, to the very same character of obedience as that which was rendered by our adorable Lord and Saviour Himself. (“Deuteronomy 5” by C.H. Mackintosh)
• It will ever be the aim and object of all true ministers of Christ to lead those, to whom they minister, in the true path of obedience to the word of God. The chapter which lies open before us, as indeed the entire book of Deuteronomy, shows us, very plainly, how Moses, that eminent servant of God, ever sought and diligently labored to press upon the congregation of Israel, the urgent necessity of the most implicit obedience to all the statutes and judgments of God. He did not seek any place of authority for himself. He never lorded it over God’s heritage. His one grand theme, from first to last, was obedience. This was the burden of all his discourses — obedience, not to him, but to his and their Lord. He rightly judged that this was the true secret of their happiness, their moral security, their dignity and their strength. (“Deuteronomy 5” by C.H. Mackintosh)
