Commentary on Deuteronomy 5:10

Theological / Devotional

Them that love me. Only those that love God can possibly obey Him. Obedience that does not come from the heart is nothing more than a legalistic attempt at self-righteousness, by which a man seeks to commend himself to God. In the sight of heaven such is not obedience at all. Without the spirit of obedience, the letter, the outward form, is worthless. But he who loves God supremely will find his greatest delight in cooperating with Him.
