Deuteronomio 30

Reina Valera 1909 (RV1909) · Español

1 Y SERÁ que, cuando te sobrevinieren todas estas cosas, la bendición y la maldición que he puesto delante de ti, y volvieres á tu corazón en medio de todas las gentes á las cuales Jehová tu Dios te hubiere echado, 2 Y te convirtieres á Jehová tu Dios, y obedecieres á su voz conforme á todo lo que yo te mando hoy, tú y tus hijos, con todo tu corazón y con toda tu alma, 3 Jehová también volverá tus cautivos, y tendrá misericordia de ti, y tornará á recogerte de todos los pueblos á los cuales te hubiere esparcido Jehová tu Dios. 4 Si hubieres sido arrojado hasta el cabo de los cielos, de allí te recogerá Jehová tu Dios, y de allá te tomará: 5 Y volverte ha Jehová tu Dios á la tierra que heredaron tus padres, y la poseerás; y te hará bien, y te multiplicará más que á tus padres. 6 Y circuncidará Jehová tu Dios tu corazón, y el corazón de tu simiente, para que ames á Jehová tu Dios con todo tu corazón y con toda tu alma, á fin de que tú vivas. 7 Y pondrá Jehová tu Dios todas estas maldiciones sobre tus enemigos, y sobre tus aborrecedores que te persiguieron. 8 Y tú volverás, y oirás la voz de Jehová, y pondrás por obra todos sus mandamientos, que yo te intimo hoy. 9 Y hacerte ha Jehová tu Dios abundar en toda obra de tus manos, en el fruto de tu vientre, en el fruto de tu bestia, y en el fruto de tu tierra, para bien: porque Jehová volverá á gozarse sobre ti para bien, de la manera que se gozó sobre tus padres; 10 Cuando oyeres la voz de Jehová tu Dios, para guardar sus mandamientos y sus estatutos escritos en este libro de la ley; cuando te convirtieres á Jehová tu Dios con todo tu corazón y con toda tu alma. 11 Porque este mandamiento que yo te intimo hoy, no te es encubierto, ni está lejos: 12 No está en el cielo, para que digas: ¿Quién subirá por nosotros al cielo, y nos lo traerá y nos lo representará, para que lo cumplamos? 13 Ni está de la otra parte de la mar, para que digas: ¿Quién pasará por nosotros la mar, para que nos lo traiga y nos lo represente, á fin de que lo cumplamos? 14 Porque muy cerca de ti está la palabra, en tu boca y en tu corazón, para que la cumplas. 15 Mira, yo he puesto delante de ti hoy la vida y el bien, la muerte y el mal: 16 Porque yo te mando hoy que ames á Jehová tu Dios, que andes en sus caminos, y guardes sus mandamientos y sus estatutos y sus derechos, para que vivas y seas multiplicado, y Jehová tu Dios te bendiga en la tierra á la cual entras para poseerla. 17 Mas si tu corazón se apartare, y no oyeres, y fueres incitado, y te inclinares á dioses ajenos, y los sirvieres; 18 Protéstoos hoy que de cierto pereceréis: no tendréis largos días sobre la tierra, para ir á la cual pasas el Jordán para poseerla. 19 A los cielos y la tierra llamo por testigos hoy contra vosotros, que os he puesto delante la vida y la muerte, la bendición y la maldición: escoge pues la vida, porque vivas tú y tu simiente: 20 Que ames á Jehová tu Dios, que oigas su voz, y te allegues á él; porque él es tu vida, y la longitud de tus días; á fin de que habites sobre la tierra que juró Jehová á tus padres Abraham, Isaac, y Jacob, que les había de dar.

Deuteronomio 30:1-10

De 30:1-10. Great Mercies Promised unto the Penitent.

1-10. when all these things are come upon thee, ... and thou shalt return ... then the Lord thy God will turn thy captivity--The hopes of the Hebrew people are ardently directed to this promise, and they confidently expect that God, commiserating their forlorn and fallen condition, will yet rescue them from all the evils of their long dispersion. They do not consider the promise as fulfilled by their restoration from the captivity in Babylon, for Israel was not then scattered in the manner here described--"among all the nations," "unto the utmost parts of heaven" (De 30:4). When God recalled them from that bondage, all the Israelites were not brought back. They were not multiplied above their fathers (De 30:5), nor were their hearts and those of their children circumcised to love the Lord (De 30:6). It is not, therefore, of the Babylonish captivity that Moses was speaking in this passage; it must be of the dispersed state to which they have been doomed for eighteen hundred years. This prediction may have been partially accomplished on the return of the Israelites from Babylon; for, according to the structure and design of Scripture prophecy, it may have pointed to several similar eras in their national history; and this view is sanctioned by the prayer of Nehemiah (Ne 1:8, 9). But undoubtedly it will receive its full and complete accomplishment in the conversion of the Jews to the Gospel of Christ. At the restoration from the Babylonish captivity, that people were changed in many respects for the better. They were completely weaned from idolatry; and this outward reformation was a prelude to the higher attainments they are destined to reach in the age of Messiah, "when the Lord God will circumcise their hearts and the hearts of their seed to love the Lord." The course pointed out seems clearly to be this: that the hearts of the Hebrew people shall be circumcised (Col 2:2); in other words, by the combined influences of the Word and spirit of God, their hearts will be touched and purified from all their superstition and unbelief. They will be converted to the faith of Jesus Christ as their Messiah--a spiritual deliverer, and the effect of their conversion will be that they will return and obey the voice (the Gospel, the evangelical law) of the Lord. The words may be interpreted either wholly in a spiritual sense (Joh 11:51, 52), or, as many think, in a literal sense also (Ro 11:1-36). They will be recalled from all places of the dispersion to their own land and enjoy the highest prosperity. The mercies and favors of a bountiful Providence will not then be abused as formerly (De 31:20; 32:15). They will be received in a better spirit and employed to nobler purposes. They will be happy, "for the Lord will again rejoice over them for good, as He rejoiced over their fathers."

Deuteronomio 30:11-14

De 30:11-14. The Commandment Is Manifest.

11-14. For this commandment ... is not hidden ... neither is it far off--That law of loving and obeying God, which was the subject of Moses' discourse, was well known to the Israelites. They could not plead ignorance of its existence and requirements. It was not concealed as an impenetrable mystery in heaven, for it had been revealed; nor was it carefully withheld from the people as a dangerous discovery; for the youngest and humblest of them were instructed in those truths, which were subjects of earnest study and research among the wisest and greatest of other nations. They were not under a necessity of undertaking long journeys or distant voyages, as many ancient sages did in quest of knowledge. They enjoyed the peculiar privilege of a familiar acquaintance with it. It was with them a subject of common conversation, engraven on their memories, and frequently explained and inculcated on their hearts. The apostle Paul (Ro 10:6-8) has applied this passage to the Gospel, for the law of Christ is substantially the same as that of Moses, only exhibited more clearly in its spiritual nature and extensive application; and, accompanied with the advantages of Gospel grace, it is practicable and easy.

Deuteronomio 30:15-20

De 30:15-20. Death and Life Are Set before the Israelites.

15-20. See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil--the alternative of a good and happy, or a disobedient and miserable life. Love of God and compliance with His will are the only ways of securing the blessings and avoiding the evils described. The choice was left to them, and in urging upon them the inducements to a wise choice, Moses warmed as he proceeded into a tone of solemn and impressive earnestness similar to that of Paul to the elders of Ephesus (Ac 20:26, 27).
