SEV Biblia, Chapter 4:4

¶ Acordaos de la ley de Moisés mi siervo, al cual encargué en Horeb; ordenanzas y derechos míos sobre todo Israel.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Malachi 4:4

Verse 4. Remember ye the law of Moses] Where all these things are predicted. The Septuagint, Arabic, and Coptic, place this verse the last.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 4. Remember ye the law of Moses my
servant , etc.] Who was faithful as such in the house of God, in delivering the law to the children of Israel, which was given him; and who are called upon to remember it, its precepts and its penalties, which they were apt to forget: and particularly this exhortation is given now, because no other prophet after Malachi would be sent unto them, this is what they should have and use as their rule and directory; and because that Christ, now prophesied of, would be the end of this law; and this, and the prophets, were to be until the days of John the Baptist, spoken of in the next verse ( Malachi 4:5); and the rather, because in this period of time, between Malachi and the coming of Christ, the traditions of the elders were invented and obtained, which greatly set aside the law, and made it of no effect: which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel ; for though the law came by Moses, and is therefore called his, yet God was the author and efficient cause of it; Moses was only a servant and minister; and this was given in Horeb, the same with Sinai: these are names of one and the same mountain, at least of the parts of it; one part of it was called Horeb, from its being a dry desert and desolate place; and the other Sinai, from its bushes and brambles. So Jerom says, “Horeb, the mountain of God, is in the land of Midian, by Mount Sinai, above Arabia in the wilderness, to which are joined the mountain and wilderness of the Saracens, called Pharan; but to me it seems the same mountain is called by two names, sometimes Sinai, and sometimes Horeb;” (see Exodus 31:18 32:1,2 33:6). Agreeably to which Josephus calls Horeb, where Moses fed his flock, and saw the vision of the burning bush, Mount Sinai; and says, it was the highest of the mountains in those parts, very convenient for pasture, and abounded with excellent herbage. Some say the eastern part of it was called Sinai, and the western part Horeb; it is very likely they joined together at the bottom of the mountain, and were the two tops of it. This being mentioned shows, that the law, strictly taken, and not the prophets, is here designed, for no other was commanded, ordered, or delivered in Horeb; and that was for all the children of Israel in successive ages, until the coming of the Messiah, and for them only, as to the ministration of it by Moses. [With] the statutes and judgments ; the laws ceremonial and judicial, which were given to Moses, at the same time the law of the decalogue was, to be observed by the children of Israel, and which were shadows of things to come; namely, those of them that were of a ceremonial nature, and therefore to be remembered and attended to as leading to Christ, and the things of the Gospel.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 4-6 - Here is a solemn conclusion, not only of this
prophecy, but of the Ol Testament. Conscience bids us remember the law. Though we have no prophets, yet, as long as we have Bibles, we may keep up our communio with God. Let others boast in their proud reasoning, and call i enlightening, but let us keep near to that sacred word, through whic this Sun of Righteousness shines upon the souls of his people. The must keep up a believing expectation of the gospel of Christ, and mus look for the beginning of it. John the Baptist preached repentance an reformation, as Elijah had done. The turning of souls to God and their duty, is the best preparation of them for the great and dreadful day of the Lord. John shall preach a doctrine that shall reach men's hearts and work a change in them. Thus he shall prepare the way for the kingdom of heaven. The Jewish nation, by wickedness, laid themselve open to the curse. God was ready to bring ruin upon them; but he wil once more try whether they will repent and return; therefore he sen John the Baptist to preach repentance to them. Let the believer wai with patience for his release, and cheerfully expect the great day when Christ shall come the second time to complete our salvation. But those must expect to be smitten with a sword, with a curse, who tur not to Him that smites them with a rod. None can expect to escape the curse of God's broken law, nor to enjoy the happiness of his chosen an redeemed people, unless their hearts are turned from sin and the world to Christ and holiness. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with u all. Amen __________________________________________________________________
