18 And I commanded you at that time all the things which you should do.

Commento a questo verso  

Da Alexander Payne

Verse 18. Thus was a state induced in which all things in the mind were under the influence and government of Divine truth from the Word.[Note (verses 9-18).—If a man had simply to follow certain dictates given him from the Word, and found them ready applied to every difficulty arising in life, he would be as far as spiritual thought is concerned a mere machine. It is by having apparently to decide for himself and to work out difficulties by his own reasoning powers, with the Divine truths of the Word as an ultimate Court of Appeal, that he attains true understanding in spiritual things.]
