Barnes's Deuteronomy 29:11 Bible Commentary

The covenant was national, and therefore embraced all the elements which make up the nation. The "little ones" would of course be represented by their parents or guardians; the absent Deuteronomy 29:15 by those present; nor were the servants and proselytes to be excluded (compare Acts 2:39). The text is fairly alleged in justification of the Church's practice of admitting little ones into covenant with God by Baptism, and accepting promises made on their behalf by sponsors.

Wesley's Deuteronomy 29:11 Bible Commentary

29:11 Thy stranger - Such strangers as had embraced their religion: all sorts of persons, yea, even the meanest of them.
