24:7He took the Book of the Covenant19 and read it aloud20 to the people, and they said, “We are willing to do and obey21 all that the Lord has spoken.”
Footnotes
- 19 The noun “book” would be the scroll just written containing the laws of chaps. 20–23. On the basis of this scroll the covenant would be concluded here. The reading of this book would assure the people that it was the same that they had agreed to earlier. But now their statement of willingness to obey would be more binding, because their promise would be confirmed by a covenant of blood.
- 20 Heb “read it in the ears of.”
- 21 A second verb is now added to the people’s response, and it is clearly an imperfect and not a cohortative, lending support for the choice of desiderative imperfect in these commitments—“we want to obey.” This was their compliance with the covenant.
