 If the lovers of God are comforted, in verse 9, and most blessedly encouraged to keep His commandments; the haters of God are called to hearken to a warning note in verse 10. There is a time coming when God will deal personally—face to face, with His enemies. How awful the thought that any one should be a hater of God—a hater of that One who is said to be and who is “Light” and “Love”; the very fountain of goodness, the Author and Giver of every good and perfect gift, the Father of lights; the One whose liberal hand supplies the need of every living thing. (Deuteronomy 7 by C.H. Mackintosh)
 Very few would be disposed to own themselves to be absolute haters of God; but there is no neutral ground in this great question; we must either be for or against; and, in point of fact, people are not slow in showing their colors. (Deuteronomy 7 by C.H. Mackintosh)
 Men do not like to hear it; many affect and profess not to believe it. They would fain persuade themselves and persuade others also that God is too good, too kind, too merciful, too benevolent to deal in stern judgment with His creatures. They forget that God’s ways in government are as perfect as His ways in grace. (Deuteronomy 7 by C.H. Mackintosh)
