Deut. 6:11| commandment
| See note 11 in ch. 4. In Deuteronomy the law, the commandments, the statutes, and the ordinances are all God’s word (Psa. 119), and the totality, the aggregate, of God’s word is Christ (John 1:1, 14). Whereas the children of Israel were charged to keep the commandments, statutes, and ordinances, we today need to keep Christ. By taking Christ, keeping Christ, and holding fast to Him, we will gain Him, enjoy Him, and live Him (Phil. 3:8; 1:19-21a). See notes 31 in ch. 8 and 121 in ch. 30.
