  1  Who may or may not enter into the congregation.
 9  Uncleanness is to be avoided in the host.

17  Of filthiness.
18  Of abominable sacrifices.
19  Of usury.
21  Of vows.
24  Of trespasses.


VERSE 1
- wounded.
   * Le 21:17-21; 22:22-24 Ga 3:28
- shall not enter.
  It is evident that his law was not meant to exclude such
  Israelites either from the common benefits of civil society,
  or any essential religious advantages; but merely to lay them
  under a disgraceful distinction.  This would tend to
  discourage parents from thus treating their children; a
  practice which was exceedingly common in those ages and
  countries.  To this they were induced by the custom which
  prevailed, of employing such in the houses of the great and
  the courts of princes; so that they often rose to the highest
  posts of honor and authority.  Some expositors therefore
  consider the phrase, "shall not enter into the congregation of
  the Lord," as meaning, that they should be incapable of
  bearing any office in that government which was placed over
  the people of God, who must thus enter a protest against this
  custom, and deliver selfish parents from this temptation.

   * :2,3,8 Ne 13:1-3 Isa 56:3,4 La 1:10

VERSE 2
    * Isa 57:3 Zec 9:6 Joh 8:41 Heb 12:8


VERSE 3 
 - Ammonite.
  These nations were subjected for their impiety, wickedness,
  and enmity to Israel, (ver. 4, 5,) to peculiar disgrace; and
  on this account were not permitted to hold any office among
  the Israelites.  This did not, however, disqualify them from
  becoming convert; for Ruth, who was a Moabitess, was
  married to Boaz, and became one of the progenitors of our
  Lord.

   In such a vast camp as that of the Israelites, (See Notes on
  Nu ch. 1; 2,) and indeed, as Scheuchzer remarks, in every well

VERSE 15
   We cannot suppose that this law required the Israelites to
  entertain slaves who had robbed their masters, or left their
  service without cause; but such only as were cruelly treated,
  and fled to them for protection, especially from the
  neighboring nations.  To such they were commanded to afford
  shelter, and shew great kindness.

 - There shall be, etc.
  The prohibition in the text, like many others, has no direct
  application to practices that were common among the Israelites
  at that time; but was intended to guard them against the
  enormities which were practised among the surrounding nations.
