Study

       

31 But as for thee, stand thou here by me, and I will speak to thee all the commandments, and the statutes, and the judgments, which thou shalt teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess it.


Commentary on this verse  

By Alexander Payne

Verse 31. And the soul's understanding of truth is brought nearer to truth Divine, and receives by it instruction in all things which are necessary both for life and for worship and for each difficulty that arises; whereby the whole mind is informed of those things which must be done in the new heavenly states with which the Lord is gifting the soul. [Note.—Thus the soul's understanding of truth is the medium which leads it on towards perfection by degrees, and is accommodated to its capacities of reception in every state.
