Contextual Overview

12 And now, Israel, what has Jehovah your God asked of you, except to fear Jehovah your God, to walk in all His ways, and to love Him, and to serve Jehovah your God with all your heart, and with all your soul; 13 to keep the commandments of Jehovah, and His statutes which I am commanding you today, for your good. 14 Behold, the heavens and the Heaven of the heavens, the earth and all in it, belong to Jehovah your God. 15 Only, Jehovah has delighted in your fathers, to love them; and He chose their seed after them, on you out of all the peoples, as it is today. 16 And you shall circumcise the foreskin of your heart, and you shall not harden your neck any more. 17 For Jehovah your God, He is the God of gods, and the Lord of lords; the great, the mighty, the fearful God who does not lift up faces, nor take a bribe. 18 He executes justice for the fatherless and the widow, and loves the alien, to give to him food and clothing. 19 And you shall love the alien, for you were aliens in the land of Egypt. 20 You shall fear Jehovah your God; you shall serve Him; and you shall cleave to Him; and you shall swear by His name. 21 He shall be your praise, and He shall be your God, who has done for you these great and fearful things which your eyes have seen.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

To keep the commandments of the Lord, and his statutes,.... Both the ten commands and all others:

which I command thee this day for thy good; promises of temporal good things, introduction into the land of Canaan, possession of it, and continuance in it, being made to obedience to them.
