== Lexical notes ==
+
===Verse 1===
+
* ''Judgments.''  The Hebrew word ''mishpat'' can [http://bible.crosswalk.com/Lexicons/Hebrew/heb.cgi?number=04941&version=kjv mean] "judgment, justice, or ordinance."  In English, these meanings seem quite dissimilar at first blush.  Judgment and justice come from the [http://www.bartleby.com/61/IEroots.html Indo-European root] [http://www.bartleby.com/61/roots/IE76.html ''deik-''] which means to show or pronounce solemnly.  Ordinance on the other hand comes from [http://www.bartleby.com/61/roots/IE22.html ''ar-''] meaning to fit together (as in establishing order).  Two more similar English words from these same two roots are, respectively, ''dictum'' and ''ordinance''—both are pronouncements made for the purpose of establishing order.
+
 
+
===Verse 2===
+
* ''Fear the Lord.''  The Hebrew word ''yare''' can [http://bible.crosswalk.com/Lexicons/Hebrew/heb.cgi?number=03372&version=kjv mean] fear, reverence, or awe.  Translated ''fear'', this verse stands in contrast to the commandment to love God in verse 4 (cf. [[1 Jn 4:18]] and [[Moro 8:16]]).  However, translated as ''reverence'', this verse seems more similar to ''love'' in verse 4.  (See also verses [[Deut 6:13|13]] and [[Deut 6:24|24]] on fear and [[Deut 7:8|7:8]] which includes several more cross-references in Deuteronomy on love.)
+
 
+
===Verses 3-4===
+
* ''Hear, O Israel.''  See [[Deut 7:12]] for structural notes regarding this phrase.
+
 
+
===Verse 5===
+
* ''Love the Lord.''  Notice the contrast here with verse 2 (and the associated cross-references).
