Study

       

9 καὶ εἶπεν κύριος πρός με μὴ ἐχθραίνετε τοῖς μωαβίταις καὶ μὴ συνάψητε πρὸς αὐτοὺς πόλεμον οὐ γὰρ μὴ δῶ ὑμῖν ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς αὐτῶν ἐν κλήρῳ τοῖς γὰρ υἱοῖς λωτ δέδωκα τὴν σηιρ κληρονομεῖν

Commentary on this verse  

By Alexander Payne

Verse 9. And the soul is commanded by the Lord through the Word not to be hostile to what proceeds from imperfect external worship, nor to contend with it by fighting against it from spiritual truths; for genuine spiritual truth will not be formed in the soul by dispossessing the states derived from external worship, for the Lord has provided the love of external worship for the benefit of those faculties in the soul which can only receive a religious principle derived from external things.
