Commentary on Deuteronomy 23:22

Theological / Devotional

Forbear. It is not obligatory to make vows to Jehovah. What is obligatory is the carrying out of a vow after it has been made. Such a violation is sin in the sight of God. To make a vow to God is to assume a sacred obligation. To withdraw from that obligation is to injure one’s spiritual life (see Leviticus 27; Numbers 30).
