Deuteronomy 30:10 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 30:10

If thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God
Or rather, "for thou shalt hearken" F16; seeing it is before promised that the Lord would circumcise their hearts to love him, and they should obey his voice, ( Deuteronomy 30:6 Deuteronomy 30:8 ) . The Targum is,

``receive the Word of the Lord:''

to keep his commandments and his statutes, which are written in this
book of the law;
particularly in this chapter, and all that are of a moral nature:

[and] if thou return unto the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and
with all thy soul;
or, "for thou shall return" as it is promised they should, ( Deuteronomy 30:8 ) .

Deuteronomy 30:10 In-Context

8 Then you shall again obey the Lord, observing all his commandments that I am commanding you today,
9 and the Lord your God will make you abundantly prosperous in all your undertakings, in the fruit of your body, in the fruit of your livestock, and in the fruit of your soil. For the Lord will again take delight in prospering you, just as he delighted in prospering your ancestors,
10 when you obey the Lord your God by observing his commandments and decrees that are written in this book of the law, because you turn to the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
11 Surely, this commandment that I am commanding you today is not too hard for you, nor is it too far away.
12 It is not in heaven, that you should say, "Who will go up to heaven for us, and get it for us so that we may hear it and observe it?"
