Deuteronomy27:3
3 And thou shalt write upon them all the words of this law , when thou art passed over, that thou mayest go in unto the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, a land that floweth with milk and hony, as the LORD God of thy fathers hath promised thee.
Either 1. all the words of this book of Deuteronomy. But that seems too large for this place. Or 2. the blessings and curses here following. But they are mentioned as a different thing. Or 3. the law properly so called, i. e. the sum and substance of the precepts or laws of Moses, especially such as were moral and general, as may be guessed from the following part of the chapter, where the curses pronounced against all that confirm not all the words of this law to do them are particularly applied unto the transgressours of moral laws onely, ver. 15, 16, &c. And especially the Decalogue, which oft goes under that name. Compare Ios. 8. 32. &c.
