2and when you and your children return to the LORD your God and obey His voice with all your heart and all your soul according to everything I am giving you today, 3then He will restore you from captivity and have compassion on you and gather you from all the nations to which the LORD your God has scattered you.

Deuteronomy 30:1 Summary

This verse is talking about a time when God's people will be scattered to other nations because of their disobedience, but even in that hard time, they will remember the good and bad things that happened to them. It's like when we look back on our lives and think about the good and bad things that have happened, and we realize that God was with us through it all, as seen in Romans 8:28. God wants us to remember these things so that we can turn back to Him and obey Him with all our hearts, like it says in Deuteronomy 30:2. By doing so, we can experience His restoration and compassion, as promised in Deuteronomy 30:3 and Jeremiah 29:11.

Matthew Poole's Commentary on Deuteronomy 30:1

CHAPTER 30 A promise of gracious deliverance to the Jews upon their repentance, in future times, . The law of God manifest and just, . Life and death set before them, . The blessing when thou art obedient, and the curse when thou becomest rebellious and apostatical. Set before thee, Heb. placed before thy face, i.e. propounded to thy consideration and choice. Call them to mind, or, bring them back to thy heart, i.e. deeply affect thy heart with the sense of these things, to wit, of the blessings offered and given to them by God’ s mercy, and the curses brought upon themselves by their sins.

Trapp's Commentary on Deuteronomy 30:1

Deuteronomy 30:1 And it shall come to pass, when all these things are come upon thee, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before thee, and thou shalt call [them] to mind among all the nations, whither the LORD thy God hath driven thee,Ver. 1. The blessing and the curse.] When thou hast made trial of both, and hath bought thy wit, as feeling by woeful experience what an evil and a bitter thing sin is, and how easily thou mightest have redeemed thine own sorrows by better obedience.

Ellicott's Commentary on Deuteronomy 30:1

XXX.(1) When all these things are come upon thee, the blessing and the curse.—The curse is still upon them, and therefore this chapter contemplates the possibility of a restoration still to come. Some would go much further than this. But thus much is undeniable. And thou shalt call them to mind.—An awakening among the people themselves must precede their restoration.

Adam Clarke's Commentary on Deuteronomy 30:1

CHAPTER XXX Gracious promises are given to the penitent, 1-6. The Lord will circumcise their heart, and put all these curses on their enemies, if they hearken to his voice and keep his testimonies, 7-10. The word is near to them, and easy to be understood, 11-14. Life and death, a blessing and a curse, are set before them; and they are exhorted to love the Lord, obey his voice, and cleave unto him, that they may inherit the land promised to Abraham, 15-20. NOTES ON CHAP. XXX Verse 1. When all these things are come upon thee, the blessing and the curse] So fully did God foresee the bad use these people would make of their free agency in resisting the Holy Ghost, that he speaks of their sin and punishment as certain; yet, at the same time, shows how they might turn to himself and live, even while he was pouring out his indignation upon them because of their transgressions.

Cambridge Bible on Deuteronomy 30:1

1. all these things are come upon thee] Deuteronomy 4:30. the blessing and the curse, etc.] Deuteronomy 11:26; cp. Deuteronomy 4:8. Blessing as well as curse, because the memory that God, in His faithfulness, had blessed them, in such times as they were obedient, and therefore might be trusted to do so again, is as requisite for the repentance of the exiled people, as their bitter experience of His curses upon their disobedience. There is, thus, no need to take these words, or the blessing by itself, as a gloss (as Steuern. and Marti do). which I have set before thee] Deuteronomy 4:8, Deuteronomy 11:26. call them to mind] Lit. bring back to thy heart. See on Deuteronomy 29:4. hath driven thee] Heb. hiddiah, in this sense used 11 times in Jer., but not so elsewhere in Deut.; the passive form occurs in Deuteronomy 30:4 below. For other applications of the root see Deuteronomy 13:13 (14), Deuteronomy 19:5, Deuteronomy 20:19, Deuteronomy 22:1.

Barnes' Notes on Deuteronomy 30:1

The rejection of Israel and the desolation of the promised inheritance were not to be the end of God’s dispensations. The closing words of the address therefore are words of comfort and promise.

Whedon's Commentary on Deuteronomy 30:1

1. When all these things are come upon thee — Moses sees the future glory of Israel, its rise and its fall: its glory under David and Solomon, its decay and ruin under its later rulers.
