The subject of the divine laws is continued through this Chapter. Moses under GOD'S authority, points out the unblemished state required of the animals to be offered in sacrifice; of the punishment of idolaters: of controversies in judgment: of the election of a king; and of special duties required of him.

Deuteronomy 17:1

I hope the Reader will not overlook, in the frequent notice which he must have made in the several parts of Moses' writings, concerning the unblemished state of the animals to be offered in sacrifice, how exceedingly concerned the HOLY GHOST was, to direct the view of Israel to JESUS, the Lamb without blemish and without spot. For as all the sacrifices of the Jews were types of him, nothing can be more pointed than this one feature. Oh my soul, may it be never thy lot, to offer the blind and the lame in sacrifice! Malachi 1:8.
