Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(6) Understand therefore.--Literally, and thou knowest. Three times the formula occurs in these verses. "The children of Anak thou knowest; and thou knowest the Lord thy God; and (thirdly) thou knowest thyself too."A stiffnecked people.--The metaphor seems to be taken from a camel or other beast of burden, who hardens his neck, and will not bend it for the driver.
