Context — The Covenant in Moab
13and so that He may establish you today as His people, and He may be your God as He promised you and as He swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
14I am making this covenant and this oath not only with you,
15but also with those who are standing here with us today in the presence of the LORD our God, as well as with those who are not here today.
16For you yourselves know how we lived in the land of Egypt and how we passed through the nations on the way here. 17You saw the abominations and idols among them made of wood and stone, of silver and gold.Cross References

Deuteronomy 29:15 Summary
Deuteronomy 29:15 tells us that God's covenant is not just with the people who are physically present but also with those who are not there, showing us that God's plans and promises are for everyone. This means that when we make commitments to God, we're part of a much bigger group of people who have made similar promises throughout history, as seen in Exodus 19:5-6 and 1 Peter 2:9-10. It reminds us that our relationship with God is personal but also part of a larger community, which can be a great source of comfort and strength, similar to the support found in Acts 2:42-47. This understanding can help us feel more connected to other believers and to God's overall plan for humanity.
Frequently Asked Questions
Who is included in the covenant being made in Deuteronomy 29:15?
The covenant is being made with those physically present and those not present, emphasizing the inclusivity of God's promises as seen in Deuteronomy 29:10-13 and Genesis 17:7.
Why does the verse mention those who are not physically present?
This highlights God's omniscience and His ability to see and include all people, past, present, and future, in His plans, as also noted in Jeremiah 29:11 and Romans 8:28.
How does this verse relate to the concept of community in the Bible?
It underscores the importance of community and corporate responsibility before God, reflecting the teachings found in Leviticus 26:37 and Acts 2:42-47.
What does this mean for our personal relationship with God?
It means that our relationship with God is not isolated but is part of a larger community of believers, past and present, as encouraged in Hebrews 12:1-2 and Psalm 133:1.
Reflection Questions
- How does the inclusivity of God's covenant in Deuteronomy 29:15 make you feel about your place in the community of believers?
- In what ways can you apply the concept of corporate responsibility before God in your daily life and relationships?
- Reflect on how the knowledge that you are part of a larger, spiritual community affects your worship and service to God.
- Consider how this verse might challenge or encourage you in your understanding of God's plans and promises for your life and the lives of those around you.

But with [him] that standeth here with us this day before the Lord our God,.... Who are before specified according to their dignity, age, sex, and station of life; or rather, "but [as] with him that standeth", c.
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Deuteronomy 29:15
That thou shouldest enter into covenant with the LORD thy God, and into his oath, which the LORD thy God maketh with thee this day: No JFB commentary on these verses.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Deuteronomy 29:15
i.e. With your posterity; for so the covenant was made at first with Abraham and his seed, by which, as God engaged himself to continue the blessing of Abraham upon his posterity, so he also engaged them to the same duties and conditions which were required of Abraham. So it is even among men, where a king confers an estate upon a subject and his heirs for ever, upon some certain conditions, all his heirs who enjoy that benefit are obliged to the same conditions. But whatsoever becomes of man’ s right, God the Creator and sovereign Lord of all men and things hath an unquestionable right and power to oblige all persons that are or shall be to such conditions as he pleaseth, and especially to such conditions as are for their own benefit, which is the present case.
Ellicott's Commentary on Deuteronomy 29:15
(14, 15) Neither with you only . . . but . . . also with him that is not here with us this day—i.e., “also with generations yet to be” (Rashi).
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Deuteronomy 29:15
Verse 15. Him that standeth here] The present generation. Him that is not here - all future generations of this people.
Cambridge Bible on Deuteronomy 29:15
14, 15. Cp. Deuteronomy 5:3. Deuteronomy 29:15 is better rendered, but at once with him that standeth here … and with him that is not here with us this day.
Barnes' Notes on Deuteronomy 29:15
With him that is not here with us - i. e. as the Jews explain, posterity; which throughout all generations was to be taken as bound by the act and deed of those present and living.
Whedon's Commentary on Deuteronomy 29:15
14-15. Neither with you only — Moses here impresses upon the people that the covenant is not merely with those he is addressing, but also with their descendants.
