Verse 25<\/span>. Thou mayest pluck the ears with thine hand<\/B><\/I>] It was on the permission granted by this law that the disciples plucked the ears of corn, as related Mt 12:1<\/span>. This was both a considerate and humane law, and is no dishonour to the Jewish code.<\/P> <\/p>\n When thou comest into the standing corn of thy neighbour<\/strong>,…. Passest through it to go to some other place, the road lying through it, as it often does through standing corn; so Christ and his disciples are said to go through the corn, Mt 12:1<\/span>; but Jarchi says this Scripture speaks of a workman also, and so the Targum of Jonathan,<\/p>\n “when thou goest in to take thine hire according to work in thy neighbour’s standing corn;”<\/p>\n but the other sense is best, and is confirmed and illustrated by the instance given, as well as best agrees with what follows:<\/p>\n then thou mayest pluck the ears with thine hand<\/strong>; the ears of wheat, and rub them, to separate the grain from the husk or beard, and eat it, as did the disciples of Christ; Lu 6:1<\/span>; to satisfy hunger: but thou shall not move a sickle unto thy neighbour’s standing corn to cut it down and carry any of it off; which would have been an unjust thing.<\/p>\n REFLECTIONS<\/p>\n<\/p>\n MY soul! While thou beholdest the many disqualifications, by which men are kept off from the congregation of the LORD’S people, think of thy privileges, and bless GOD that thou art neither an Ammonite nor an Edomite, though a Gentile, and not of the original stock of Israel; and yet permitted to come into the congregation by the new and living way, opened for sinners in the blood and righteousness of JESUS. LORD! give me grace that I may not associate with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them; and may I be always found cleansed from all my pollutions in the blood of JESUS. Dear LORD! I thank thee, that when by thy HOLY SPIRIT, I was enabled to flee to thee, from the rigorous and hard service of Satan; thou hast not given me back again into his power, but hast graciously promised that sin shall not have dominion over me, for I am no longer under the law, as a covenant of works, but under grace. May I not hope, blessed JESUS, that as sin hath reigned unto death, so shall grace reign, through righteousness, unto eternal life, by JESUS CHRIST our LORD?<\/p>\n Deu 23:25 When thou comest into the standing corn of thy neighbour, then thou mayest pluck the ears with thine hand; but thou shalt not move a sickle unto thy neighbour’s standing corn.<\/p>\n Ver. 25. But thou shalt not move a sickle.<\/strong> ] Here God reserveth the right and property of the owner, which no man might invade or infringe.<\/p>\n NASB (UPDATED) TEXT: Deu 23:25<\/p>\n 25When you enter your neighbor’s standing grain, then you may pluck the heads with your hand, but you shall not wield a sickle in your neighbor’s standing grain.<\/p>\n Deu 23:25 Deu 23:24-25 both show that the needy can eat all they want, but they cannot take any of the crop away with them for later consumption or sale (e.g., Mat 12:1-8; Mar 2:23-28; Luk 6:1-5). YHWH cares for both the poor and the rights of the farmers.<\/p>\n DISCUSSION QUESTIONS<\/p>\n This is a study guide commentary which means that you are responsible for your own interpretation of the Bible. Each of us must walk in the light we have. You, the Bible, and the Holy Spirit are priority in interpretation. You must not relinquish this to a commentator.<\/p>\n These discussion questions are provided to help you think through the major issues of this section of the book. They are meant to be thought provoking, not definitive.<\/p>\n 1. Why would God exclude anyone who wanted to be a part of His people from being so?<\/p>\n 2. Why did God make a distinction between certain countries?<\/p>\n 3. How is ritual cleanliness related to sin in the OT?<\/p>\n 4. How do Deu 23:24-25 balance property owners’ rights with the poor and needy?<\/p>\n standing corn.
