Deuteronomy 9:8 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

Here the man of GOD particulariseth the instances of Israel's rebellion. Horeb, of all places, should have called forth obedience. For there the LORD confirmed the authority of his holy law, by the awful demonstration of the mount burning with fire. But alas!, neither the mount burning with fire, nor all the threatenings of everlasting burning, can deter from the commission of sin, unless Almighty grace restrain. Reader! do you know this? do you really believe, it? If not, may He who alone can convince of sin, be your teacher. John 16:8.

Deuteronomy 9:8

8 Also in Horeb ye provoked the LORD to wrath, so that the LORD was angry with you to have destroyed you.
