Adam Clarke's Bible Commentary Verse 9. When your fathers tempted me ] Tried me, by their insolence, unbelief, and blasphemy. They proved me-they had full proof of my power to save and to destroy. There they saw my works-they saw that nothing was too hard for God.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 7-11 - Christ calls upon his people to hear his voice. You call him Master, or Lord; then be his willing, obedient people. Hear the voice of his doctrine, of his law, and in both, of his Spirit: hear and heed; hea and yield. Christ's voice must be heard to-day. This day of opportunit will not last always; improve it while it is called to-day. Hearing the voice of Christ is the same with believing. Hardness of heart is at the bottom of all distrust of the Lord. The sins of others ought to be warnings to us not to tread in their steps. The murmurings of Israe were written for our admonition. God is not subject to such passions a we are; but he is very angry at sin and sinners. That certainly is evil, which deserves such a recompence; and his threatenings are a sure as his promises. Let us be aware of the evils of our hearts, whic lead us to wander from the Lord. There is a rest ordained for believers, the rest of everlasting refreshment, begun in this life, an perfected in the life to come. This is the rest which God calls his rest _________________________________________________
