Deuteronomy 10:12 “Now, Israel, what does the LORD your God require from you, but to fear the LORD your God, to walk in all His ways and love Him, and to serve the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul, Deuteronomy 30:16 in that I command you today to love the LORD your God, to walk in His ways and to keep His commandments and His statutes and His judgments, that you may live and multiply, and that the LORD your God may bless you in the land where you are entering to possess it. 1 John 5:3+ For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments; and His commandments are not burdensome. KEEP THE COMMANDS OF YAHWEH ALL THE TIME - ALWAYS! Moses is issuing a call to commitment in Dt 11:1-10. Always means at all times, invariably, forever, in any event, without exception, every time, continually, repeatedly, in any case, on every occasion. McIntosh points out that "The first twenty-five verses of the chapter alternate between commands to love God and reasons for doing so and Verse 1 could be invoked as a summary of the entire chapter." (Holman Old Testament Commentary) Grant - This chapter continues the message of Moses to the people as they prepare to enter Canaan. It is the final part of the review of Israel's past with the lessons that ought to have been learned by the people. It has covered their victory over Egypt, the journeys through the wilderness, and the discipline of God along the way. The final lessons, never to be forgotten, are here placed before them so that there could be no excuse for falling again into the sins that had blighted the wilderness years. It is a sad fact of the lessons of the past can soon be forgotten. As time passes the reality of His hand in the circumstances of life due to the believer's sin may no longer be viewed as chastisement, a fact that was readily accepted at the time. It is blessing indeed always to remember what has been taught and determine never to err in the same manner again. (What the Bible Teaches – Leviticus and Deuteronomy) Kalland - In this section the Exodus and desert experiences of Moses' audience are called to remembrance (notice the recurrence of the remembrance motif). The constant repetition of ideas, words, and phrases characterizes the messages of Deuteronomy. The repetition shows the intensity of the Lord's desire to remold his people to prepare them for the conquest and settlement of Canaan. By this repetition Moses attempted to plant firmly in the minds of the people the necessity of total allegiance to the Lord. Chapter 11 is markedly illustrative of this hammerlike repetitive style. The exhortations to love, remember, observe, worship (serve), obey, teach, and walk in the Lord's ways are all here. So also are the words used to describe the basic content of the messages as requirements, decrees, laws, commands, words, and symbols. Reference is made to what God did for them and how he did it by his majesty, his mighty hand, and his outstretched arm. If they would live and obey the Lord, he would drive out the nations then in Canaan, settle the Israelites in the land, and provide for them to their satisfaction; but if not, they would be destroyed. (The Expositor's Bible Commentary – Volume 3: Deuteronomy, Joshua, Judges, Ruth, 1 & 2 Samuel) Therefore - Most versions have this term of conclusion at the beginning of this verse. What is being concluded? One writer says "This verse is the practical improvement of the conclusion of the foregoing chapter; while the next verse begins another view of the subject." This also connects nicely with the previous requirement of Yahweh in Dt 10:12-13. In Dt 10:21-22 Moses has described how God had done "great and awesome things" and had multiplied Israel from "seventy" to "as numerous as the stars." Therefore... ESV Study Bible on therefore - The command to love is grounded in God’s gracious rescue of Israel from Egypt (Dt 10:21-22). You shall therefore love the LORD your God, and always keep - NET Bible = You must love the LORD your God and do what he requires. Moses is saying that if you say you LOVE THE LORD, you will OBEY THE LORD. Lips and life must always match! Jesus reiterates “If you love Me, you will keep My commandments." (Jn 14:15). Note that this love is not a feeling or an emotion but ultimately represents submission to the will of God manifest as obedience to the will of God. Note Moses is not calling for sporadic obedience (gulp!) but "at all times" (NET), "all the days" (Young's Literal)
