Main Purpose: God is (still) calling Israel through Moses to obey the conditional covenant made at Sinai and remade here at Moab. Main Point: Moses is calling Israel to covenant faithfulness by reiterating the main laws of the bilateral covenant exactly as YHWH spoke them. Exegetical Questions: 1. Why is it important that the reader know that God "added no more"? It is at this point in the assembly before Sinai that the Lord ceased giving the Decalogue, the people demanded that Moses intercede for them, and God no longer spoke thunderously from the fire for the rest of the law. Since Moses began this recitation with "The Lord made a covenant…the Lord spoke with you…He said" in order for the Israelites to take these 10 words very seriously, it seems Moses is emphasizing the uniqueness of these 10 words, specifically his speaking them to this generation now being exactly what YHWH spoke to their parents at Sinai then . Block sees this as the case: an "identity between the oral and the textual revelation: what YHWH said, that he wrote, and no more" (198). McConville sees it more as a shifting in God's speech content, marking a "break between categories" of the Decalogue and the further law. Calvin understands this phrase to indicate the utter uniqueness, importance, and indeed perfection of wisdom given in the 10 Words. 2. What is the force of the k^asher clause (manner? ground?) in v. 12, and what is it modifying ("Observe"? "to keep holy"?)? It best fits as a modifier of the main verb "observe" since in Deut. Moses is recounting what has already been spoken and making sure the nation understands that his words are identical with YHWH's words: he is the mediator. Further, in this section he is continually pointing back to Sinai and calling them to remember and hear/observe/keep God's words to them. The force of the k^ preposition attached to the relative clause cannot indicate ground and typically is not exactly "manner," but according to Arnold and Choi it is indicating "agreement" or "correspondence" between terms, and this is in view here in context. Block sees Moses doing this and therefore not displacing the original ground of the Sabbath command in Exod. McConville however, while not addressing the clause, does suggest that Moses is giving a new and separate ground for the imperative. Exegetical Outline All Israel Summoned by Moses I.
