SEV Biblia, Chapter 31:9

¶ Y escribió Moisés esta ley, y la dio a los sacerdotes, hijos de Leví, que llevaban el arca del pacto del SEÑOR, y a todos los ancianos de Israel.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 31:9

Verse 9. Moses wrote this law] Not the whole
Pentateuch, but either the discourses and precepts mentioned in the preceding chapters, or the book of Deuteronomy, which is most likely.

Some of the rabbins have pretended that Moses wrote thirteen copies of the whole Pentateuch; that he gave one to each of the twelve tribes, and the thirteenth was laid up by the ark. This opinion deserves little credit. Some think that he wrote two copies, one of which he gave to the priests and Levites for general use, according to what is said in this verse, the other to be laid up beside the ark as a standard copy for reference, and to be a witness against the people should they break it or become idolatrous. This second copy is supposed to be intended ver. 26. As the law was properly a covenant or contract between God and the people, it is natural to suppose there were two copies of it, that each of the contracting parties might have one: therefore one was laid up beside the ark, this was the Lord's copy; another was given to the priests and Levites, this was the people's copy.


John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 9. And Moses wrote this law , etc.] The book of Deuteronomy, or the Pentateuch, the five books of Moses, which he had now finished, and which all of them together are sometimes called the law, ( Galatians 4:21); and delivered it unto the priests, the sons of Levi ; who were the teachers of the law, as Aben Ezra observes; (see Malachi 2:7); and therefore it was proper to put it into their hands, to instruct the people in it, and that the people might apply to them in any matter of difficulty, or when they wanted to have any particular law explained to them: which bare the ark of the covenant of the Lord ; for though they were the Levites, and particularly the Kohathites, who in journeying carried the ark; (see Numbers 4:5-15 10:21); yet sometimes it was borne by the priests; (see Joshua 3:13-17 6:6 1 Samuel 4:4); and unto all the elders of Israel ; the judges and civil magistrates in the respective tribes; for as there were in the book of the law several things which belonged to the priests to perform, and all of them they were to instruct in, so there were others which were to be the rule of judgment to judges, and all civil magistrates, and which they were to take care were put in execution; and therefore it was proper that they should have a copy of this law, and which must be here understood; for it cannot be thought that one and the same copy should be given both to the priests and to all the elders. The Jews say Moses wrote thirteen copies of the law, twelve for the twelve tribes, and one to be put into the ark, to convict of fraud or corruption, should any be made f555 .

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 9-13 - Though we read the word in private, we must not think it needless to hear it read in public. This solemn reading of the law must be done in the year of
release. The year of release was typical of gospel grace which is called the acceptable year of the Lord; for our pardon an liberty by Christ, engage us to keep his commandments. It must be rea to all Israel, men, women, children, and to the strangers. It is the will of God that all people should acquaint themselves with his word It is a rule to all, therefore should be read to all. Whoever has rea of the pains taken by many persons to get scraps of the Scriptures when a whole copy could not be obtained, or safely possessed, will se how thankful we should be for the thousands of copies amongst us. The will also understand the very different situation in which the Israelites were placed for many ages. But the heart of man is s careless, that all will be found too little, to keep up a knowledge of the truths, precepts, and worship of God.
