Deuteronomio 23:3 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 23:3

An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter into the congregation of
the Lord
Or marry an Israelitish woman, as Jarchi, and so the Targum of Jonathan,

``the male Ammonites and Moabites are not fit to take a wife of the congregation of the Lord;''

for the Jews restrain this to men, because it is, as Aben Ezra observes, an Ammonite, not an Ammonitess, a Moabite, not a Moabitess; they allow that females of those nations might be married to Israelites, that is, provided they were proselytesses, as Ruth was F13:

even to their tenth generation, shall they not enter into the
congregation of the Lord for ever;
that is, not only to the tenth generation, but for ever; and this law was understood as in force in Nehemiah's time, which was more than ten generations from the making of it; though now, as these nations are no more a distinct people, they suppose it is no longer binding F14.

Deuteronomio 23:3 In-Context

1 No entrar谩 en la congregaci贸n del SE脩OR el que fuere quebrado, ni el castrado.
2 No entrar谩 bastardo en la congregaci贸n del SE脩OR; ni aun en la d茅cima generaci贸n entrar谩 en la congregaci贸n del SE脩OR.
3 No entrar谩 amonita ni moabita en la congregaci贸n del SE脩OR; ni aun en la d茅cima generaci贸n entrar谩 en la congregaci贸n del SE脩OR para siempre;
4 por cuanto no os salieron a recibir con pan y agua al camino, cuando salisteis de Egipto; y porque alquil贸 contra ti a Balaam hijo de Beor de Petor de Mesopotamia de Siria, para que te maldijese
5 Mas no quiso el SE脩OR tu Dios o铆r a Balaam; y el SE脩OR tu Dios te volvi贸 la maldici贸n en bendici贸n, porque el SE脩OR tu Dios te amaba.
