SEV Biblia, Chapter 22:18
Y vosotros os volvéis hoy de seguir al SEÑOR; mas será que vosotros os rebelaréis hoy contra el SEÑOR, y mañana se airará él contra toda la congregación de Israel.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 18. But that you must turn away this day from following the Lord ? etc.] From the worship of the Lord, as the Targum, and so on ( Joshua 22:16); not content with the former transgression, but must add this revolt unto it, and at a time which sadly aggravates it: and it will be, that [seeing] ye rebel to, day against the Lord ; against the Word of the Lord, as the Targum, and so on ( Joshua 22:16); that tomorrow he will be wroth with the whole congregation of Israel ; or, in a little time, if a stop is not put to this revolt, the whole body of the people will suffer for it: here they express a concern for the whole nation of Israel, as well as for the glory of God; for sometimes the whole congregation has been charged with the sins of individuals, and punished for it, as a case after mentioned shows; (see Joshua 7:1,5).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 10-20 - Here is the care of the separated tribes to keep their hold of Canaan' religion. At first sight it seemed a design to set up an altar agains the altar at Shiloh. God is jealous for his own institutions; we shoul be so too, and afraid of every thing that looks like, or leads to idolatry. Corruptions in religion are best dealt with at first. But their prudence in following up this zealous resolution is no les commendable. Many an unhappy strife would be prevented, or soon mad up, by inquiries into the matter of the offence. The remembrance of great sins committed formerly, should engage us to stand on our guar against the beginnings of sin; for the way of sin is down-hill. We ar all concerned to reprove our neighbour when he does amiss, lest we suffer sin upon him, Le 19:17. The offer made that they should be welcome to come to the land where the Lord's tabernacle was, and settl there, was in the spirit of true Israelites.
