Henry).<\/p>\n out of mine house<\/em> ] where they had been stored, Deu 14:28<\/span>.<\/p>\n all thy<\/em> commandments<\/strong> ] So Sam., LXX. The anxiety to keep these ritual laws, with a great ethical purpose behind them viz. the relief of the poor is very striking. The laws are now detailed: <\/p>\n Before the Lord, <\/B>i.e. either before the tabernacle or temple; or rather, in thy private and domestic addresses to God; for this is to be said presently upon the distribution of these tithes, which was not done at Jerusalem, but <\/P> in their own private gates<\/B> or dwellings; except we will suppose that after he had given away these tithes at home he should go up to Jerusalem merely to make this acknowledgment, which seems improbable. And this is to be spoken before the Lord<\/I>, i.e. solemnly, seriously, and in a religious manner, with due respect to Gods presence and will and glory, which is a sufficient ground for that phrase. I have brought away<\/I>, or, separated<\/I>, or, removed<\/I>, to wit, from my own proper and private fruits. The hallowed things<\/I>, i.e. the tithes which have been sanctified and set apart for these uses. <\/P> <\/p>\n 13. thou shalt say before the Lordthy God, I have brought away the hallowed things out of minehouse<\/B>This was a solemn declaration that nothing which shouldbe devoted to the divine service had been secretly reserved forpersonal use.<\/P><\/p>\n Then thou shalt say before the Lord thy God<\/strong>,…. Make the following declaration as in his presence; for this was not made in the tabernacle or temple at, Jerusalem, since the tithe was to be eaten with the poor in the gates of the owner, as in De 26:12<\/span>:<\/p>\n I have brought away the hallowed things out of [mine] house<\/strong>: which Aben Ezra and Onkelos interpret of the tithe; but it seems, besides that, to take in everything devoted to all holy uses, be they what they will, which were at this time to be separated from a man’s own common goods, and applied to the purposes for which they were designed and devoted, and particularly what was to be given to the poor:<\/p>\n and also have, given them unto the Levite, and unto the stranger, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all thy commandments which thou hast commanded me<\/strong>; giving to each according as the law directs; which the Targum of Jonathan and Jarchi interpret as before, giving the first tithe to the Levites, and the second tithe to the rest:<\/p>\n I have not transgressed thy commandments, neither have I forgotten [them]<\/strong>: neither broken them wilfully, nor omitted them through carelessness, negligence, and forgetfulness, but was mindful to observe them punctually and exactly.<\/p>\n 13<\/strong>. <\/strong> The hallowed things <\/strong> Any thing that was set apart to be bestowed in accordance with the law to the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, the widow. “Every consecrated present bore the brief appellation, ‘Sacred thing.’” EWALD’S Antiquities of Israel, <\/em> p. 75.<\/p>\n The Jews have a tradition, that these words were spoken with a low voice, in token of humility. And, indeed, if we read with an eye to the pure gospel of JESUS, there is a great propriety in so doing. Remember what JESUS saith: Luk 17:10<\/span> . The blessing implored for all Israel at the close of the prayer, is very sweet. So should the faithful in CHRIST JESUS, constantly pray for the whole church of JESUS. That is a delightful resolution of the prophet, and worthy of universal imitation: Isa 62:1<\/span> . And that is a positive precept of the LORD, particularly to his priests and ministers: Isa 62:6-7<\/span> .<\/p>\n Deu 26:13 Then thou shalt say before the LORD thy God, I have brought away the hallowed things out of [mine] house, and also have given them unto the Levite, and unto the stranger, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all thy commandments which thou hast commanded me: I have not transgressed thy commandments, neither have I forgotten [them]:<\/p>\n Ver. 13. I have not transgressed.<\/strong> ] This is spoken, not by way of Pharisaical boasting or opinion of merit, but public testification of entire obedience.<\/p>\n hallowed = holy. <\/p>\n transgressed = passed over. Hebrew. ‘abar, <\/p>\n Levite: Deu 26:12, Deu 14:29, Deu 24:19-21, Job 31:16-20 <\/p>\n I have not: Psa 18:21-24, Psa 26:1-3, Psa 26:6, Act 24:16, 2Co 1:12, 2Co 11:31, 1Th 2:10, 1Jo 3:17-22 <\/p>\n forgotten: Psa 119:93, Psa 119:139, Psa 119:141, Psa 119:153, Psa 119:176, Pro 3:1 <\/p>\n Reciprocal: Num 18:8 – the charge Luk 14:13 – call<\/p>\n Deu 26:13. Before the Lord thy God As this tithe of the third year was to be spent at home, these words must signify either that every man was to make this solemn profession at home in his private addresses to God, or that the next time he went up to the place of the sanctuary he was to make this declaration before the most holy place, where God was supposed to be peculiarly present. At whichever place he made it, it was to be done as before God; that is, solemnly, seriously, and in a religious manner, with due respect to Gods presence, in obedience to his command, and with an eye to his glory.<\/p>\n 26:13 Then thou shalt {h} say before the LORD thy God, I have brought away the hallowed things out of [mine] house, and also have given them unto the Levite, and unto the stranger, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all thy commandments which thou hast commanded me: I have not {i} transgressed thy commandments, neither have I forgotten [them]:<\/p>\n (h) Without hypocrisy.<\/p>\n (i) Of malice and contempt.<\/p>\n Then thou shalt say before the LORD thy God, I have brought away the hallowed things out of [mine] house, and also have given them unto the Levite, and unto the stranger, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all thy commandments which thou hast commanded me: I have not transgressed thy commandments, … Continue reading “Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of Deuteronomy 26:13”<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5588","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-commentary"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5588","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5588"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5588\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5588"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5588"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5588"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Fuente: The Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n
