5 And he was king in Jeshurun, when the heads of the people and the tribes of Israel were gathered together.
5 He was king over Jeshurun
5 Thus the Lord became king in Jeshurun, when the heads of the people were gathered, all the tribes of Israel together.
5 Thus God became king in Jeshurun as the leaders and tribes of Israel gathered.
5 And He was King in Jeshurun, When the leaders of the people were gathered, All the tribes of Israel together.
5 The Lord became king in Israel - when the leaders of the people assembled, when the tribes of Israel gathered as one."
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Deuteronomy 33:5
Commentary on Deuteronomy 33:1-5
(Read Deuteronomy 33:1-5)
To all his precepts, warnings, and prophecies, Moses added a solemn blessing. He begins with a description of the glorious appearances of God, in giving the law. His law works like fire. If received, it is melting, warming, purifying, and burns up the dross of corruption; if rejected, it hardens, sears, pains, and destroys. The Holy Spirit came down in cloven tongues, as of fire; for the gospel also is a fiery law. The law of God written in the heart, is a certain proof of the love of God shed abroad there: we must reckon His law one of the gifts of his grace.
