Commentary— Tyndale Open Study Notes (plain English)
34:10-26 Some of the terms of the covenant are restated, particularly those that prohibit the worship of other gods and that describe the proper worship of the Lord. 34:10-11 God committed himself again to the miraculous care of his people in bringing them into the land of Canaan. That care was contingent on obedience. In Hebrew, the word translated listen (34:11) also means obey. There is no distinction as there is in English, in which a disobedient person can hear a command but not obey.
