Tie them on your hands and foreheads as a reminder; inscribe them on the doorposts of your homes and on your city gates.

Contextual Overview

⁴Hear, O Israel: Our God YHWH—YHWH [is] one! ⁵And you have loved your God YHWH with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might. ⁶And these words which I am commanding you today have been on your heart,⁷and you have repeated them to your sons, and spoken of them in your sitting in your house, and in your walking in the way, and in your lying down, and in your rising up, ⁸and have bound them for a sign on your hand, and they have been for frontlets between your eyes, ⁹and you have written them on doorposts of your house and on your gates. ¹⁰And it has been, when your God YHWH brings you into the land which He has sworn to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give to you great and good cities which you have not built, ¹¹and houses full of all good things which you have not filled, and wells dug which you have not dug, vineyards and olive-yards which you have not planted, that you have eaten and been satisfied. ¹²Take heed to yourself lest you forget YHWH who has brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of a house of servants. ¹³You fear your God YHWH, and you serve Him, and you swear by His Name.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And these words, which I command thee this day,.... To hearken to, observe, and take notice of, that God is one, and is to be loved in the strongest manner that possibly can be:

shall be in thine heart; on the table of the heart, as the Targum of Jonathan; see 2 Corinthians 3:3, be cordially received, have a place in the affections of the heart, and be retained in mind and memory.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Deuteronomy 6:6. Shall be in thine heart — For where else can love be? If it be not in the heart, it exists not. And if these words be not in the heart - if they are not esteemed, prized, and received as a high and most glorious privilege, what hope is there that this love shall ever reign there?
