SEV Biblia, Chapter 13:12
¶ Cuando oyeres de alguna de tus ciudades que el SEÑOR tu Dios te da para que mores en ellas, que se dice:
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 12. If thou shalt hear say in one of thy cities , etc.] A report concerning them, anyone of them: which the Lord thy God had given thee to dwell there ; which he had not only given them, but had put them into the possession of, and it was become their dwelling place, or was inhabited by Israelites; otherwise they were already given unto them, but did not inherit and inhabit them, and it might be possible that there might be some city or cities, at least for a time, which, though given them, were not inhabited by them, but by the Canaanites, and such cities this law did not concern: saying; as follows.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 12-18 - Here is the case of a city revolting from the God of Israel, an serving other gods. The crime is supposed to be committed by one of the cities of Israel. Even when they were ordered to preserve their religion by force, yet they were not allowed to bring others to it be fire and sword. Spiritual judgments under the Christian dispensatio are more terrible than the execution of criminals; we have not les cause than the Israelites had, to fear the Divine wrath. Let us the fear the spiritual idolatry of covetousness, and the love of worldl pleasure; and be careful not to countenance them in our families, be our example or by the education of our children. May the Lord write his law and truth in our hearts, there set up his throne, and shed abroa his love __________________________________________________________________
