v.1 Covenants renewed at Sinai and Moah are vitiated by place names that render the covenant pendent to the Covenant where the Law has had a direct hand in establishing the Fellowship of God with Man: curse is implied on anyone who stops short at the day Six. The covenant is everlasting so heavenly blessings include the angels ' all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?' Heb.1.14)
The believer is outside his familial boundaries determined by flesh and blood or to the land which is irrelevant in the verity of the word. 'The earth and the fulness thereof belongs to God.' The land of Palestine is but a small part for God who promised his Son and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.' He is the heir of all things so the blessedness come from both heaven and the earth. His Son who figures as the Man in the Covenant of seven days," whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds." (Heb.1.2; Ps.2.8) God is looking in the part of Man one who is in our image and after our likeness. The Spirit makes this distinction clear in the genealogy of Adam,"and begat a son in his own likeness, and after his image; and called his name Seth."(Gen.5.3.) In v.1 Adam was created in the image of God. In his fall man everywhere fell short of his glory. Hence the covenant with Israel specifies the blessing and curse in detail. God's calling and gifts are irrevocable. Without the Law of the Spirit man is wresting from the word of God its marrow.
v.28 Moses refers to the day decreed for the Son, "as it is this day." God has revealed through Jesus Christ,"If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloke for their sin."( Jn 15.22)
29 The secret things belong unto the Lord our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us ".

The last line in the second para:
God's calling and gifts are irrevocable. Without the Law of the Spirit man is wresting from the word of God its marrow."
should be read as
"God's calling and gifts are irrevocable. Without the Law of the Spirit man is wresting from the word of God leaving its marrow out".
