20 para que seu coração não se exalte sobre seus irmãos, e não se aparte do mandamento, nem para a direita nem para a esquerda; a fim de que prolongue os seus dias no seu reino, ele e seus filhos, no meio de Israel.


Commentary on this verse  

By Alexander Payne

Verse 20. That the ruling principles of the soul may be established in humility, and thus not be against a life of true charity, and that they may not lead the soul away from the path designed for it by Divine Providence into the paths favouring the natural loves, and the fallacies which flow from them: to the end that the states derived from these ruling principles, and from the goods and truths produced by their means in the soul, may be as full and complete as possible in the spiritual mind.
