Commentaries on Deuteronomy 29:10

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 10Ye stand - all of you before the Lord - They were about to enter into a covenant with God; and as a covenant implies two parties contracting, God is represented as being present, and they and all their families, old and young, come before him.Read the comment
