El rey

Deuteronomio 17:14 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 17:14

When thou art come unto the land which the Lord thy God giveth
thee
The land of Canaan:

and shalt possess it, and shalt dwell therein;
be entirely in the possession of it, and settled in it; it seems to denote some time of continuance in it, as it was, before they thought of setting a king over them, about which are the following instructions:

and shalt say, I will set a king over me, like as all the nations
that are round about me;
which was what would and did lead them to such a thought and resolution; observing that the neighbouring nations had kings over them, they were desirous of being like them as to the form of their civil government, and have a king as they had.

Deuteronomio 17:14 In-Context

12 El soberbio que muestre desacato al juez o al sacerdote en funciones, será condenado a muerte. Así extirparás de Israel el mal.
13 Todo el pueblo lo sabrá, y tendrá temor y dejará de ser altivo.
14 »Cuando tomes posesión de la tierra que te da el SEÑOR tu Dios, y te establezcas, si alguna vez dices: “Quiero tener sobre mí un rey que me gobierne, así como lo tienen todas las naciones que me rodean”,
15 asegúrate de nombrar como rey a uno de tu mismo pueblo, uno que el SEÑOR tu Dios elija. No aceptes como rey a ningún forastero ni extranjero.
16 »El rey no deberá adquirir gran cantidad de caballos, ni hacer que el pueblo vuelva a Egipto con el pretexto de aumentar su caballería, pues el SEÑOR te ha dicho: “No vuelvas más por ese camino”.
