[A note regarding chapter 4 of Deuteronomy]
“In this whole book, just as in all the other books of Moses, there is frequent repetition ad nauseam. Beware lest anyone be moved to boredom on account of it. For the cause for its being repeated so often is that it is the Word of God, which is to be distinguished from the work of men. Therefore the Word of God cannot be impressed enough. Since our nature is slippery and adversaries stand in opposition about us and do not cease to repeat their things and to impress them upon us, therefore, lest we be oppressed and forget the things that are of God, they have to be repeated.”
