Deuteronomio 7:25

25 »Quema sus ídolos y no codicies ni la plata ni el oro que los recubre. No te los lleves contigo, o se convertirán en una trampa para ti, porque son detestables al Señor
tu Dios.

Deuteronomio 7:25 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 7:25

The graven images of their gods shall ye burn with fire
Which is repeated from ( Deuteronomy 7:5 ) , that it might be the more observed and strictly performed, and which unless done, they could not expect the utter destruction of their enemies, who were left in the land to try and prove them with respect to this very thing:

thou shall not desire the silver or gold that is on them:
the raiment of gold or silver with which they were bedecked, or the plates of gold and silver with which they were covered, or any ornament about them, as chains and the like, that were of either of these metals; see ( Ezekiel 16:16 Ezekiel 16:17 Ezekiel 16:18 ) ( Jeremiah 10:9 ) ,

nor take it unto thee, lest thou be snared therein;
nor take it into their possession, or bring it into their houses, as in the next verse, lest they should be under a temptation to worship it, or keep it as a superstitious relic:

for it is an abomination to the Lord thy God;
not only the idol itself, being put in the place of God, and so derogatory to his honour and glory, but the gold and silver on it, being devoted to a superstitious and idolatrous use; and even the taking of it, and appropriating it to a man's own use, was an abomination, and resented by the Lord as such.

Deuteronomio 7:25 In-Context

23 Pero el Señor
tu Dios entregará a todas esas naciones en tus manos. Las llenará de confusión hasta que queden destruidas.

24 Pondrá a sus reyes bajo tu poder, y tú borrarás sus nombres de la faz de la tierra. Nadie podrá hacerte frente, y tú los destruirás a todos.

25 »Quema sus ídolos y no codicies ni la plata ni el oro que los recubre. No te los lleves contigo, o se convertirán en una trampa para ti, porque son detestables al Señor
tu Dios.

26 No traigas a tu casa ninguna clase de objetos detestables porque, si lo haces, serás destruido, igual que ellos. Aborrece por completo esas cosas, porque están apartadas para ser destruidas.
