SEV Biblia, Chapter 27:25
Maldito el que recibiere don para herir de muerte al inocente. Y dirá todo el pueblo: Amén.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 25. Cursed [be] he that taketh reward to slay an innocent person , etc.] As an assassin, to murder him privately; or as a judge, that takes a bribe to condemn to death an innocent person: so Aben Ezra observes, that according to the sense of some a judge is meant; but, says he, in my opinion a false witness; one that swears a man’s life away for the sake of a reward given him: and all the people shall say Amen ; at so detestable a crime.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 11-26 - The six tribes appointed for blessing, were all children of the fre women, for to such the promise belongs, Ga 4:31. Levi is here among the rest. Ministers should apply to themselves the blessing and curse the preach to others, and by faith set their own Amen to it. And they mus not only allure people to their duty with the promises of a blessing but awe them with the threatenings of a curse, by declaring that curse would be upon those who do such things. To each of the curses the people were to say, Amen. It professed their faith, that these, and the like curses, were real declarations of the wrath of God against the ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, not one jot of which shall fal to the ground. It was acknowledging the equity of these curses. Thos who do such things deserve to fall, and lie under the curse. Lest thos who were guilty of other sins, not here mentioned, should thin themselves safe from the curse, the last reaches all. Not only thos who do the evil which the law forbids, but those also who omit the goo which the law requires. Without the atoning blood of Christ, sinner can neither have communion with a holy God, nor do any thing acceptabl to him; his righteous law condemns every one who, at any time, or i any thing, transgresses it. Under its awful curse we remain a transgressors, until the redemption of Christ is applied to our hearts Wherever the grace of God brings salvation, it teaches the believer to deny ungodliness and wordly lusts, to live soberly, righteously, an godly in this present world, consenting to, and delighting in the word of God's law, after the inward man. In this holy walk, true peace an solid joy are to be found __________________________________________________________________
