Deuteronomio 4:2 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 4:2

Ye shall not add to the word which I command you, nether shall
you diminish ought from it
Neither make new laws of their own, and join them to the law of God, and set them upon a level with it, or prefer them before it; as the Scribes and Pharisees did in Christ's time, who by their traditions made the word of God of none effect, as do the Papists also by their unwritten traditions; nor abrogate nor detract from the law of God, nor make void any part of it: or else the sense is, neither do that which is forbidden, nor neglect that which is commanded; neither be guilty of sins of omission nor commission, nor in any way break the law of God, and teach men so to do by word or by example; not a jot or tittle is either to be put to it, or taken from it, ( Proverbs 30:5 Proverbs 30:6 ) ( Matthew 5:18 Matthew 5:19 ) ( Revelation 22:18 Revelation 22:19 )

that ye may keep the commandments of the Lord your God, which I command
you;
in his name; or which he delivered unto them as his commandments, and which were to be kept just as they were delivered, without adding to them, or taking from them.

Deuteronomio 4:2 In-Context

1 Moisés llama a Israel a la obediencia
»Ahora, Israel, escucha con atención los decretos y las ordenanzas que estoy a punto de enseñarte. Obedécelos para que vivas y para que puedas entrar y poseer la tierra que el Señor
, Dios de tus antepasados, te da.

2 No agregues ni quites nada a estos mandatos que te doy. Simplemente obedece los mandatos del Señor
tu Dios que te doy.

3 »Tú viste con tus propios ojos lo que el Señor
te hizo en Baal-peor. Allí, el Señor
tu Dios destruyó a todos los que habían rendido culto a Baal, el dios de Peor.

4 Sin embargo, ustedes, todos los que fueron fieles al Señor
su Dios, todavía siguen vivos; todos y cada uno de ustedes.

5 »Mira, ahora te enseño decretos y ordenanzas tal como me lo encargó el Señor
mi Dios, para que los obedezcas en la tierra donde estás a punto de entrar y que vas a poseer.
