SEV Biblia, Chapter 32:18
Del Fuerte que te crió, te has olvidado; te has olvidado del Dios tu creador.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 32:18
Verse 18. Of the Rock that begat thee] rwx tsur, the first cause, the fountain of thy being. See the note on "ver. 4".
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 18. Of the rock [that] begat thee thou art unmindful , etc.] The same with the rock of salvation, ( Deuteronomy 32:15); repeated and expressed in different words, that their wretched ingratitude might be taken notice of and observed: begetting is ascribed to this rock, as regeneration is to Christ, ( 1 John 2:29); and was true of some among the Jews: some choose to render the words, “the rock of thy kindred” f595 ; being a near kinsman, a brother through his incarnation, which aggravated their unmindfulness of him: and hast forgotten God that formed thee : for the rock they were unmindful of and forgot is the true God and eternal life, the essential Word of God, as both the Targums of Jonathan and Jerusalem interpret it; him the Jewish nation forgot; they forgot the characters given of him in the promises and prophecies of the Old Testament; and therefore they knew him not when he came and fulfilled the voices of the prophets they were ignorant of in condemning him: hence they were unmindful of his person, his offices, his works, his benefits, and the great salvation by him; as indeed too many are that call themselves Christians: some observe that the word here used signifies bringing forth children with pain, and so way respect the bitter sorrows and sufferings of Christ, sometimes expressed by a word which signifies the pains of women in childbirth, ( Acts 2:24); and called the travail of his soul, ( Isaiah 53:11); and so a further aggravation of their ingratitude, that they should forget him that suffered so much, at least on account of some of them; for, those he endured to bring forth children unto God, or to gather together the children of God, scattered abroad both in Judea and in the whole world, ( John 11:51,52).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 15-18 - Here are two instances of the wickedness of Israel, each was apostac from God. These people were called Jeshurun, "an upright people," s some; "a seeing people," so others: but they soon lost the reputatio both of their knowledge and of their righteousness. They indulged their appetites, as if they had nothing to do but to make provision for the flesh to fulfil the lusts of it. Those who make a god of themselves and a god of their bellies, in pride and wantonness, and cannot bear to be told of it, thereby forsake God, and show they esteem him lightly There is but one way of a sinner's acceptance and sanctification however different modes of irreligion, or false religion, may show tha favourable regard for other ways, which is often miscalled candid. Ho mad are idolaters, who forsake the Rock of salvation, to run themselve upon the rock of perdition!
