申命記 22:12 JC

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Deuteronomy 22:1-30

Here we have the record of the laws conditioning life in love and neighborliness. Every man was enjoined to take care of his brother's lost things if he found them; and he was also to help the hurt animals of his brethren in the hour of their distress. All unseemliness in dress was forbidden. Men were charged to act in kindness even toward the birds. In building their houses they were to think of others who later might have to use them, and protect them against the possibility of accident by... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 22:5-12

Israel Must Avoid All That Is Unseemly (Deuteronomy 22:5-12 ) Israel was to avoid all that was unseemly. That had applied with regard to what living things could be eaten (Deuteronomy 14:3-21). Now it applies to dressing transexually (Deuteronomy 22:5), to dealings with nature (Deuteronomy 22:6-7), and to mixing unlike with unlike (Deuteronomy 22:10-12). Analysis using the words of Moses: a A woman shall not wear what pertains to a man, nor shall a man put on a woman’s garment, for whoever... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 22:12

A Fringe On The Robe (Deuteronomy 22:12 ). In Numbers 15:37-41 special tassels were to be a distinctive mark of the Israelite, and were to remind him of Yahweh’s commandments. Here that requirement is simply demanded without explanation. In Numbers it was part of the nation’s dedication to Yahweh. Deuteronomy 22:12 ‘ You shall make yourself tassels on the four borders of your robe with which you cover yourself.’ One purpose of the tassels was that the Israelite should look at them and... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 22:1-12

Deuteronomy 22:1-Numbers : . See Exodus 23:4 f.* (JE) and Leviticus 6:1-Judges : * (P), and cf. CH. §§ 9– 13. Deuteronomy 22:5. Peculiar to Dt. In one of the rites of Canaanite, Phœ nician, and Syrian heathenism the sexes changed dresses (see references in Driver). Deuteronomy 22:6 f. Respect for parenthood, so prominent in Dt. ( Deuteronomy 21:18-Ecclesiastes :, cf. Deuteronomy 5:16) is the probable source of this law (peculiar to Dt.). Deuteronomy 22:8 . Another example of the... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Deuteronomy 22:12

Fringes, or laces, or strings; partly to bring the commands of God to their remembrance, as it is expressed, Numbers 15:38; and partly as a public profession of their nation and religion, whereby they might be discerned and distinguished from strangers, that so they might be more circumspect to behave themselves as became the people of God, and that they should not be ashamed to own their God and religion before all the world. Wherewith thou coverest thyself: these words are either restrictive... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Deuteronomy 22:1-30

CRITICAL NOTES.—The cases stated and provided for in Deuteronomy 22:1-12 seem selected by way of example, and belong, according to our notions, rather to ethics than to law. It in noteworthy that no penalty is annexed to the breech of these regulations. No doubt it would be the duty of the “officers” (Deuteronomy 22:16-18) and the elders in the several cities to enforce their observance.—Speak. Com.Deuteronomy 22:1-4. Humanity to neighbours. This is an expansion of Exodus 23:4-5. A stray sheep,... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 22:1-30

Now in chapter twenty-two, now in those days they punished people for none involvement.If you saw your brother's ox or his sheep going astray, and you just try to ignore it: [you don't go out and get it and so forth, then you're at fault.] you shall in any case bring them again to your brother. And if your brother is not near to you, and you know him not, then you shalt bring them into your own house, and you shall keep them until your brother seeks after them, and thou shalt restore them... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Deuteronomy 22:1-30

Deuteronomy 22:5 . All that do so are abomination to the Lord. The note of Maimonides here is, that men presenting themselves before Venus, appeared partially in female attire; and women presenting themselves before Mars, appeared in armour. Sardanapalus, the last king of Nineveh, was despised by Arbactus for being found in the dress of his queens, and assisting them in spinning. Deuteronomy 22:8 . When thou buildest a new house thou shalt make a battlement, lest waking out of sleep one... read more
