- Affected Teaching
- Verse 30 answers the question of verse 29! The same God who spoke
through Moses and the prophets is the same God of the New Covenant. This
means that He will dispense judgment to those who are deserving of it. Verse
30 is a quote from Deuteronomy 32:35-36:
- (Deu 32:35-36 KJV) To me belongeth vengeance, and recompense; their
foot shall slide in due time: for the day of their calamity is at hand, and
the things that shall come upon them make haste. {36} For the LORD shall
judge his people, and repent himself for his servants, when he seeth that
their power is gone, and there is none shut up, or left.
-
- When the modern versions omit the phrase “saith the Lord” they are
omitting the source of the statement. The modern versions soften the verse
by making it sound like a commentary rather than the exact quotation of the
Lord Himself. This is why the King James is superior because it retains the
warning that God has given and does not lessen the severity of the
consequences.
