Deuteronomio 18:22

22 Cuando un profeta hable en el nombre del SEÑOR, si la cosa no acontece ni se cumple, esa es la palabra que el SEÑOR no ha hablado; con presunción la ha hablado el profeta; no tendrás temor de él.

Deuteronomio 18:22 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 18:22

When a prophet speaketh in the name of the Lord
Says he comes from God, is sent by him, and has a commission from him to say so:

if the thing follow not, nor come to pass;
as the prophecy of Hananiah, ( Jeremiah 28:3 ) that is the thing which the Lord hath not spoken; or otherwise it would have come to pass, unless when a condition is either expressed or implied, as the repentance or disobedience of a people; see ( Jeremiah 18:7-10 )

but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously;
in a bold and daring manner, with great impiety and impudence, out of his own head and heart, being a mere device and imagination of his own, which, not having the fear of God, he delivered as coming from the Lord:

thou shall not be afraid of him;
not only to reprove him for his wickedness, but also to punish him for it; showing no regard to the high character he assumes, nor to the great pretensions he makes to sanctity, knowledge, and familiarity with God.

Deuteronomio 18:22 In-Context

20 "Pero el profeta que hable con presunción en mi nombre una palabra que yo no le haya mandado hablar, o que hable en el nombre de otros dioses, ese profeta morirá."

21 Y si dices en tu corazón: "¿Cómo conoceremos la palabra que el SEÑOR no ha hablado?"

22 Cuando un profeta hable en el nombre del SEÑOR, si la cosa no acontece ni se cumple, esa es la palabra que el SEÑOR no ha hablado; con presunción la ha hablado el profeta; no tendrás temor de él.
