VERSE (33) -
Mt 23:16

SEV Biblia, Chapter 5:33

¶ Adems habis oído que fue dicho a los antiguos: No te perjurars; mas pagars al Seor tus juramentos.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Matthew 5:33

Verse 33. Thou shalt not
forswear thyself] They dishonour the great God, and break this commandment, who use frequent oaths and imprecations, even in reference to things that are true; and those who make vows and promises, which they either cannot perform, or do not design to fulfill, are not less criminal. Swearing in civil matters is become so frequent, that the dread and obligation of an oath are utterly lost in it. In certain places, where oaths are frequently administered, people have been known to kiss their thumb or pen, instead of the book, thinking thereby to avoid the sin of perjury; but this is a shocking imposition on their own souls. See the notes on Deut. iv. 26; vi. 13.

Perform unto the Lord thine oaths] The morality of the Jews on this point was truly execrable: they maintained, that a man might swear with his lips, and annul it in the same moment in his heart. Rab. Akiba is quoted as an example of this kind of swearing. See Schoettgen.


John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 33. Again, ye have heard that it hath been said , etc.] Besides what has been observed, in ver. 21 and 27 you know it has also been said, by, or to them of old time , what is written in ( Leviticus 19:12). And ye shall not swear by my name falsely; which seems to be referred to, when it is said, thou shalt not forswear thyself: and is the law forbidding perjury, or false swearing; and was what the Jews were chiefly, if not only concerned about; little regarding the vanity, only the truth of an oath: for they took swearing vainly, to be the same as swearing falsely; wherefore so long as what they swore was truth, they were not careful whether it was of any importance or not: moreover, these men sinned, in that they swore by the creatures, which they thought they might do, and not sin; and when they had so done, were not under obligation to perform; because they made no use of the name of God, to whom only vows and oaths were to be performed, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths, ( Numbers 30:2) which they understood of vows only made to the Lord, and not to others; and of oaths, when in his name, and not by others; which they did do, and yet thought themselves not obliged by them.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 33-37 - There is no reason to consider that solemn oaths in a court of
justice or on other proper occasions, are wrong, provided they are taken with due reverence. But all oaths taken without necessity, or in commo conversation, must be sinful, as well as all those expressions whic are appeals to God, though persons think thereby to evade the guilt of swearing. The worse men are, the less they are bound by oaths; the better they are, the less there is need for them. Our Lord does no enjoin the precise terms wherein we are to affirm or deny, but such constant regard to truth as would render oaths unnecessary.
