“Ye have not left your brethren these many days unto this day, but have kept the charge of the commandment of the LORD your God.”
King James Version (KJV)
22:4 Your tents - That is, to your settled habitations. Tho' their affections to their families could not but make them very desirous to return, yet like good soldiers, they would not move 'till they had orders from their general. So, tho' we desire to be at home with Christ ever so much, yet we must stay here till our warfare is accomplished, wait for a due discharge, and not anticipate the time of our removal.
22:5 Take heed - Watch over yourselves and all your actions. Commandment and law - Two words expressing the same thing, the law of commandments delivered by Moses. All your heart and soul - With the whole strength of your minds, and wills, and affections.
Yee haue not left your brethren these many dayes vnto this day, but haue kept the charge of the commandement of the Lord your God.
