TSNTyndale Study Notes:

4:3 Baal was the Canaanite god associated with the fertility of the soil and of human and animal life. Local pagan worship centers linked Baal with their own shrines and cultic rituals, as with the god of Peor (see 3:29).

TTNTyndale Theme Notes:

Biblical Law

Biblical law is more than lists of dos and don’ts. It is a system of divine expectations regarding belief and behavior which, if faithfully carried out, will bring God’s richest blessing. Life itself depends on keeping the law (Deut 4:1; see also 5:32-33; 8:1; 16:20).

The exodus from Egypt freed the nation of Israel to become God’s servant. When God delivered Israel from bondage by “a strong hand, a powerful arm, and terrifying acts” (4:34), it was not because Israel had earned this right through its own righteousness but because God is gracious and faithful to his promises to Abraham. The purpose of the rescue from Egypt was not just to relieve the Israelites of their onerous burdens (Exod 1:11-22; 5:4-23), but to make a covenant with them. The covenant relationship did not make the Israelites God’s people; they already were his people (see Exod 4:22-23). Obedience was not a precondition to the covenant but the proper response to it. It placed on them the responsibility of serving God as a priestly kingdom and a holy nation (Exod 19:4-6). The law was given to regulate Israel’s affairs as a nation so that God’s people would be a beacon of his unfailing love and faithfulness.

The covenant guaranteed the people of Israel abundant and meaningful life if they kept the law. The covenant document consists of broad principles, patterns, and standards. God’s instructions are embodied most famously in the Ten Commandments (Deut 5:6-21) and most succinctly in the Shema (6:4-5). All other laws of God are interpretations and applications of these primary principles.

The life that resulted from obedience to the law was not eternal life in the New Testament sense. It was God’s promise that if the Israelites were faithful to the covenant, the nation could expect long and prosperous days in the land (4:1; 5:16, 33). Jesus also exhorted his disciples to keep the Ten Commandments and the demands of the Shema (Matt 22:37-40)—not to have eternal life but as an expression of commitment to him (cp. Matt 5:17-19; John 14:15-21).

UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

עֵֽינֵי⁠כֶם֙

your_all's=eyes

Moses is using eyes to represent all of a person in the act of seeing. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your culture or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “You yourselves”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

בְּ⁠בַ֣עַל פְּע֑וֹר

in/on/at/with, פְּעוֹר

Here, Moses is referring to the events of Numbers 25:1-9, when Israelite men committed sexual immorality with Moabite women. The women tempted the Israelite men to worship their idol, the Baal of Peor. As a result, Yahweh punished the Israelites with a plague until Phinehas the priest killed a man who was still committing adultery.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

הָלַךְ֙ אַחֲרֵ֣י

followed after

Here, walked after means “worshiped.” Moses is speaking of worshiping idols as if people were physically walking behind idols to follow them. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “worshiped”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

הִשְׁמִיד֛⁠וֹ

destroyed,them

The implication is that Yahweh destroyed them by killing them. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “has killed them”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / youcrowd

מִ⁠קִּרְבֶּֽ⁠ךָ

from,among,you

Even though Moses is speaking to all of the Israelites, the pronoun your is singular in this verse. If the singular forms of these pronouns would not be natural in your language, you could use the plural forms in your translation.
