Deuteronomio 10

Listen to Deuteronomio 10

Las nuevas tablas de la ley

1 Ā»En aquel tiempo el SEƑOR me dijo: ā€œTalla dos tablas de piedra iguales a las primeras, y haz un arca de madera; despuĆ©s de eso, sube a la montaƱa para que te encuentres conmigo.
2 Yo escribirĆ© en esas tablas las mismas palabras que estaban escritas en las primeras, y despuĆ©s las guardarĆ”s en el arcaā€.
3 »Hice, pues, el arca de madera de acacia, y tallé dos tablas de piedra como las primeras; luego subí a la montaña llevando en las manos las dos tablas.
4 En esas tablas, que luego me entregó, el SEƑOR escribió lo mismo que habĆ­a escrito antes, es decir, los diez mandamientos que les dio a ustedes el dĆ­a en que estĆ”bamos todos reunidos en asamblea, cuando habló desde el fuego en la montaƱa.
5 En seguida bajĆ© de la montaƱa y guardĆ© las tablas en el arca que habĆ­a hecho. Y allĆ­ permanecen, tal como me lo ordenó el SEƑORĀ».

Ministerio de los levitas

6 Después los israelitas se trasladaron de los pozos de Berot Bené YacÔn a MoserÔ. Allí murió Aarón y fue sepultado, y su hijo Eleazar lo sucedió en el sacerdocio.
7 De allĆ­ se fueron a Gudgoda, y siguieron hasta Jotbata, tierra con abundantes corrientes de agua.
8 En aquel tiempo el SEƑOR designó a la tribu de LevĆ­ para llevar el arca del pacto y estar en su presencia, y para ministrar y pronunciar bendiciones en su nombre, como hasta hoy lo hace.
9 Por eso los levitas no tienen patrimonio alguno entre sus hermanos, pues el SEƑOR es su herencia, como Ć©l mismo lo ha declarado.

Las demandas del SEƑOR

10 Ā«Yo me quedĆ© en la montaƱa cuarenta dĆ­as y cuarenta noches, como lo hice la primera vez, y tambiĆ©n esta vez el SEƑOR me escuchó. Como no era su voluntad destruirlos,
11 el SEƑOR me dijo: ā€œVe y guĆ­a al pueblo en su camino, para que entren y tomen posesión de la tierra que jurĆ© a sus antepasados que les darĆ­aā€.
12 Ā»Y ahora, Israel, ĀæquĆ© te pide el SEƑOR tu Dios? Simplemente que le temas y andes en todos sus caminos, que lo ames y le sirvas con todo tu corazón y con toda tu alma,
13 y que cumplas los mandamientos y los preceptos que hoy te manda cumplir, para que te vaya bien.
14 Ā»Al SEƑOR tu Dios le pertenecen los cielos y lo mĆ”s alto de los cielos, la tierra y todo lo que hay en ella.
15 Sin embargo, él se encariñó con tus antepasados y los amó; y a ti, que eres su descendencia, te eligió de entre todos los pueblos, como lo vemos hoy.
16 Por eso, despójate de lo pagano que hay en tu corazón,[a] y ya no seas terco.
17 Porque el SEƑOR tu Dios es Dios de dioses y SeƱor de seƱores; Ć©l es el gran Dios, poderoso y terrible, que no actĆŗa con parcialidad ni acepta sobornos.
18 Ɖl defiende la causa del huĆ©rfano y de la viuda, y muestra su amor por el extranjero, proveyĆ©ndole ropa y alimentos.
19 Así mismo debes tú mostrar amor por los extranjeros, porque también tú fuiste extranjero en Egipto.
20 Teme al SEƑOR tu Dios y sĆ­rvele. AfĆ©rrate a Ć©l y jura solo por su nombre.
21 Ɖl es el motivo de tu alabanza; Ć©l es tu Dios, el que hizo en tu favor las grandes y maravillosas hazaƱas que tĆŗ mismo presenciaste.
22 Setenta eran los antepasados tuyos que bajaron a Egipto, y ahora el SEƑOR tu Dios te ha hecho un pueblo tan numeroso como las estrellas del cielo.

Deuteronomio 10 Commentary

Chapter 10

God's mercies to Israel after their rebellion. (1-11) An exhortation to obedience. (12-22)

Verses 1-11 Moses reminded the Israelites of God's great mercy to them, notwithstanding their provocations. There were four things in and by which the Lord showed himself reconciled to Israel. God gave them his law. Thus God has intrusted us with Bibles, sabbaths, and sacraments, as tokens of his presence and favour. God led them forward toward Canaan. He appointed a standing ministry among them for holy things. And now, under the gospel, when the pouring forth of the Spirit is more plentiful and powerful, the succession is kept up by the Spirit's work on men's hearts, qualifying and making some willing for that work in every age. God accepted Moses as an advocate or intercessor for them, and therefore appointed him to be their prince and leader. Moses was a type of Christ, who ever lives, pleading for us, and has all power in heaven and in earth.

Verses 12-22 We are here taught our duty to God in our principles and our practices. We must fear the Lord our God. We must love him, and delight in communion with him. We must walk in the ways in which he has appointed us to walk. We must serve him with all our heart and soul. What we do in his service we must do cheerfully, and with good will. We must keep his commandments. There is true honour and pleasure in obedience. We must give honour to God; and to him we must cleave, as one we love and delight in, trust in, and from whom we have great expectations. We are here taught our duty to our neighbour. God's common gifts to mankind oblige us to honour all men. And those who have themselves been in distress, and have found mercy with God, should be ready to show kindness to those who are in the like distress. We are here taught our duty to ourselves. Circumcise your hearts. Cast away all corrupt affections and inclinations, which hinder you from fearing and loving God. By nature we do not love God. This is original sin, the source whence our wickedness proceeds; and the carnal mind is enmity against God, for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be; so then they that are in the flesh cannot please God, Ro. 8:5-9 . Let us, without delay or reserve, come and cleave to our reconciled God in Jesus Christ, that we may love, serve, and obey him acceptably, and be daily changed into his image, from glory to glory, by the Spirit of the Lord. Consider the greatness and glory of God; and his goodness and grace; these persuade us to our duty. Blessed Spirit! Oh for thy purifying, persevering, and renewing influences, that being called out of the state of strangers, such as our fathers were, we may be found among the number of the children of God, and that our lot may be among the saints.
