THE PARABLE OF THE TORAH MATH TEST
(Part 1 of 4)
by Eddie Chumney
Hebraic Heritage Ministries Int'l
Dear Mishpochah (family):
Most of us who have attended or do attend some type of school whether it be high school or college know that periodically your knowledge of the subject matter is graded by giving a test. In order to get a good grade on school tests, it often requires hours and hours of study. Do you think that getting a good grade on school tests would be any easier if it was an OPEN BOOK test?
What YHVH requires of His people is WRITTEN in a BOOK. We call
this book the Bible. The Bible is also known as the Torah or the Word
of YHVH. In the Torah / Word of YHVH / Bible, YHVH sometimes gives us
His Word in the form of a MATH TEST. The ANSWERS to the MATH TEST are
already GIVEN. Since the ANSWERS are already given, do you think that
if you are asked a question that you could get the ANSWER CORRECT
when the ANSWER is given? Let's look at some TORAH MATH.
THE TORAH MATH EQUATION
YHVH has given His people a TORAH MATH equation. It is found in Deuteronomy (Devarim) 4:2.
KJV Deuteronomy 4:2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.
DIMINISH means to DON'T SUBTRACT. So ....
KEEP COMMANDMENTS = DON'T ADD or DON'T SUBTRACT from what is WRITTEN
So, how have the people of YHVH done in YHVH's math class? BOTH
Judaism and Christianity have FLUNKED the Torah math test. But how?
HOW JUDAISM VIEWS THE TORAH MATH EQUATION
To traditional Judaism (Rabbinic Judaism) when they see the
math equation of:
KJV Deuteronomy 4:2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.
Rabbinic Judaism thinks that "don't add" and "don't subtract" means that you take a Torah commandment and ADD and ADD and ADD and ADD and ADD and ADD and ADD.
How does Rabbinic Judaism do all this ADDING? They have a religious explanation of why:
Don't add and Don't subtract means: ADD and ADD and ADD and ADD and ADD
It is called the "Oral Law". First, they explain that when YHVH gave the Torah to Moses at Mount Sinai that Moses was given a WRITTEN Torah and an ORAL TORAH. The teach that the ORAL TORAH was given to EXPLAIN the WRITTEN TORAH.
So, when the WRITTEN TORAH says that you are to:
#1) Remember the Sabbath (Exodus 20:8)
#2) Observe the Sabbath (Exodus 31:16)
#3) Don't do any work on the Sabbath (Exodus 20:10
#4) Call the Sabbath a delight (Isaiah 58:13)
Rabbinic Judaism through the ORAL LAW says that Sabbath observance falls into 39 categories which ultimately means that we:
#1) Can't write on the Sabbath
#2) Can't turn on a light switch on the Sabbath
#3) Can't drive your car on the Sabbath
#4) Can't answer your phone on the Sabbath
etc, etc.
It goes on and on and on and on. It takes quite a bit of study to understand what you can and can't do on the Sabbath according to Orthodox Judaism. This is only one commandment. There were so many Rabbinic laws on how to keep the commandments that Moses Maimonides in the middle ages had to take all the laws and summarize them in a work known as the "Mishneh Torah". Moses Maimonides is regarded as a Torah genious because he seemed to understand all the Rabbinic laws. Why was a person regarded as a genious for being able to understand all the rabbinic laws, what they mean and how they are applied to your life? It is because the rabbis took what was in the WRITTEN TORAH and started to ADD and ADD and ADD and ADD and ADD and ADD and ADD.
In other words, the rabbis when they took their Torah math test, they thought that:
Don't add and Don't subtract from the Torah meant that you ADD and ADD and ADD and ADD and ADD and ADD and ADD and ADD.
Then, when the day comes for the parent / teacher conference, when the parents ask the teacher (rabbis) how the student is doing in math (following Torah), the teacher tells the parent and student that he is encouraged but that he thinks that the student needs to put more study doing ADDITION. When the parent / student tells the teacher that the student spends 7 hours a night on math and practicing ADDITION that the teacher thinks that the student needs to work a little harder on the ADDITION part of Torah math because the teacher explains to the parents and student that:
Don't add and Don't subtract means: ADD and ADD and ADD and ADD
When the teacher (rabbi) gives the student (Yeshiva student) a Torah test, the teacher tells that student that:
Don't add and Don't subtract means: ADD and ADD and ADD and ADD
So, after the student has taken the math test, the parents of the student want to know how they did on their weekly math test. The student says that they are confident that they are getting an "A" (doing what YHVH wants of His people) because when they took the math test they put on their Torah math test that:
Don't add and Don't subtract means: ADD and ADD and ADD and ADD
HOW CHRISTIANITY VIEWS THE TORAH MATH EQUATION
When Christianity looks at Torah math which says:
KJV Deuteronomy 4:2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.
Christianity thinks that "don't add" and "don't subtract"
means that you take a Torah commandment and SUBTRACT and SUBTRACT and
SUBTRACT and SUBTRACT and SUBTRACT and SUBTRACT and SUBTRACT.
How does Christianity do all this SUBTRACTION? They have a religious explanation of why:
Don't add and Don't subtract = SUBTRACT and SUBTRACT and SUBTRACT
It is called "age of law" and "age of grace". For Christianity, they explain that:
KJV Deuteronomy 4:2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.
YHVH only gave this math equation for about 1,500 years. So for about 1,500 years YHVH means:
Don't add or Don't subtract from what is WRITTEN.
Christianity views that YHVH gave this Torah math equation to somebody else. For them, Christianity says that YHVH gave them another Torah math book that contains ALOT more LESSONS on understanding SUBTRACTION.
After about 1,500 years (until the death of Yeshua on the tree) Christianity thinks that the Torah math equation was CHANGED to:
Don't add and don't subtract means: Throw it away except the underwear (the main essentials)
Therefore, Christianity thinks that if you wear only underwear (the main essentials of Torah ... LOVE) that you are fully clothed and YHVH and other Christians will think that you are fully clothed.
So, traditional Christianity thinks that:
Don't add and don't subtract means: SUBTRACT from the Temple ordinances
Don't add and don't subtract means: SUBTRACT from how to eat
Don't add and don't subtract means: SUBTRACT from keeping the Torah Sabbath
Don't add and don't subtract means: SUBTRACT from keeping the annual Festivals
Don't add and don't subtract means: KEEP LOVE and SUBTRACT from everything else
So, when the WRITTEN TORAH says that you are to:
#1) Remember the Sabbath (Exodus 20:8)
#2) Observe the Sabbath (Exodus 31:16)
#3) Don't do any work on the Sabbath (Exodus 20:10
#4) Call the Sabbath a delight (Isaiah 58:13)
To Christianity to remember the Sabbath, observe the Sabbath, don't do work on the Sabbath and delight on the Sabbath means that you SUBTRACT and DON' T KEEP the Torah Sabbath at all. To Christianity when YHVH says that you are to REST on the Sabbath and DON'T WORK that this means that RESTING is a BURDEN and we can't rest because it is TOO HARD to REST.
To Christianity when YHVH said:
KJV Deuteronomy 4:2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.
this means that:
Don't add and Don't subtract means: SUBTRACT from keeping the Festivals
When Christianty reads their Bible, they see that Yeshua died on the tree so that:
Don't add and Don't subtract now means: SUBTRACT (do away with Sabbath, Festivals, proper eating, the Temple and it's services etc).
Then, when the day comes for the parent / teacher conference, when the parents ask the teacher (Pastors) how the student is doing in math (following Torah), the teacher tells the parent and student that he is encouraged but that he thinks that the student needs to put more study doing SUBTRACTION. When the parent / student tells the teacher that the student spends 7 hours a night on math and practicing SUBTRACTION that the teacher thinks that the student needs to work a little harder on the SUBTRACTION part of Torah math because the teacher explains to the parents and student that:
Don't add and Don't subtract means: SUBTRACT and SUBTRACT and SUBTRACT
When the teacher (Pastor) gives the student (Christian who goes to church) a Torah math test, the teacher tells that student that:
Don't add and Don't subtract means: SUBTRACT and SUBTRACT and SUBTRACT
When the student (Christian who goes to church) ask the teacher (Pastor) how:
Don't add and Don't subtract means: SUBTRACT and SUBTRACT and SUBTRACT
The teacher (Pastor) tells the student (Christian who goes to church) to study Romans and Galatians for their next Torah math test. So, the student stays up all night and studies. Then, it is time for the test.
So, after the student has taken the math test, the parents of the student want to know how they did on their weekly math test. The student says that they are confident that they are getting an "A" (doing what YHVH wants of His people) because when they took the math test they put on their math test that:
Don't add and Don't subtract means: SUBTRACT and SUBTRACT and SUBTRACT
THE SERPENT GIVES A TORAH MATH TEST TO EVE
In the Garden of Eden, YHVH gave Adam and Eve a Torah math book. In the Torah math book it said:
KJV Genesis 2:16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:
KJV Genesis 2:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
One day the serpent came to Eve in the Garden and asked about the Torah math book that YHVH gave to Adam and Eve in the Garden. So, the serpent said to Eve:
"Eve, do you have a Torah math book"?
Eve replied: "Yes, I do".
The serpent said: "YHVH gave me a Torah math book also but my Torah math book is more complete than the Torah math book that YHVH gave you".
Eve replies: "How is that so?"
The serpent replied: "Here, look at the math book that YHVH gave me, I will show you. Let's compare Torah math books"
Eve replied: "OK, I will get my Torah math book and we can compare"
So, Eve got her Torah math book that YHVH gave her and said to the serpent, "I have gotten my Torah math book that YHVH gave me. So, I am now ready to compare our Torah math books".
So, the serpent took out his Torah math book and said to Eve:
KJV Genesis 3:1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
So, Eve got out her Torah math book that YHVH gave her and said:
KJV Genesis 3:2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:
KJV Genesis 3:3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
Eve said:
Don't eat means: Don't eat AND TOUCH
So, Eve wanted to ADD to YHVH's Torah math instructions.
So, the serpent saw an OPPORTUNITY to get Eve to FLUNK the Torah math test of YHVH when the serpent saw that Eve wanted to ADD to what YHVH had said so the serpent said to Eve:
KJV Genesis 3:5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
So, Eve studied for her Torah math test. She did remember that YHVH said that she shouldn't EAT of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and she was PRETTY SURE that YHVH also said to DON'T TOUCH (which to Eve this meant):
Don't Eat = Don't Eat and Don't TOUCH (ADD to what YHVH had said).
So, Eve was confident when the day came to take her Torah math test.
KJV Genesis 3:6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
Eve was the first to take YHVH's Torah math test in the Garden. When Eve handed in her Torah math test to YHVH she was SO EXCITED! Immediately, she ran to her husband and told him about the test.
So, Adam said to Eve:
"Honey, I have to take that Torah math test also. Can you share with me what question was on the Torah math test?"
Eve replied: "Oh, it was EASY. Do you remember when YHVH told us to not EAT of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil? Well, when I answered the question on the Torah math test, I knew that I got an "A" because I wrote that we are to NOT eat (which YHVH told us) and that we are NOT to TOUCH. I was so excited that I got an "A" on my Torah math test that I ran to tell you so that you can get an "A" also".
So, the same day Adam took YHVH's Torah math test.
When Adam was asked what does DON'T EAT mean, he wrote the same answer as his wife. Adam wrote that Don't EAT means Don't EAT and Don't Touch"
So Adam handed his Torah math test to YHVH.
The next day, YHVH called Adam and Eve to tell them how they did on their Torah math test.
YHVH said to Adam and Eve:
"I gave you a Torah math book in the Garden. I gave you the question to the Torah math test and the answer. How is it that you FLUNKED the Torah math test?
Adam and Eve replied to YHVH:
"How is it that we FLUNKED the Torah math test that you gave us?"
YHVH said to Adam and Eve:
"Read again your Torah math book and look where I gave you the question and the answer then look at the Torah math test paper that you submitted to me"
When they did, Adam and Eve were ashamed that they FLUNKED their math test and were ashamed to tell anyone that they FLUNKED an OPEN BOOK test.
KJV Genesis 3:7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.
So, YHVH asked Adam, "How was it that you FLUNKED my OPEN BOOK Torah math test that I gave you when I told you the question and the answer?"
KJV Genesis 3:11 And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?
So, Adam replied:
"Well, I looked on my wife's Torah math test and that was her answer"
KJV Genesis 3:12 And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.
So, YHVH asked Eve:
"Eve, how was it that I gave you a Torah math book and gave you the question and answer and you FLUNKED my Torah math test that I gave you?"
Eve replied:
"It was the serpent. The serpent told me that: Don't Eat means: Don't Eat and Don't touch".
KJV Genesis 3:13 And the LORD God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.
So because YHVH saw that Adam and Eve FLUNKED Torah math He told them that they would have to go back to school and study more.
YHVH said to Adam:
"Because you don't understand that Don't eat means to don't eat, I am going to put you into school to study. At this school you will study day and night. They will not let you have recess. You will be concerned about passing your next math test until you have taken it. Now, I want you to go back and study your Torah math book. Remember that don't eat means to don't eat. Don't eat does not mean to don't eat and don't touch".
KJV Genesis 3:17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;
Furthermore, YHVH said to the woman:
"Because you FLUNKED Torah math in the Garden, I will have someone born from your womb who will teach you Torah math (the Messiah). When He comes, you pay careful attention to what He teaches you about Torah math".
KJV Genesis 3:16 Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.
YHVH TEACHES TORAH MATH TO ABRAHAM
In the days of Abraham, YHVH became encouraged. YHVH saw in Abraham that He could learn Torah math and teach it to His children.
KJV Genesis 18:19 For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.
KJV Genesis 26:5 Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.
So, YHVH said to Abraham that He would give a Torah math book to His children.
KJV Genesis 15:13 And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;
KJV Genesis 15:14 And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance.
So, the days came when Moses was born and when YHVH told Moses that He would have mercy on His people and would give them a Torah math book also.
KJV Exodus 3:12 And he said, Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be a token unto thee, that I have sent thee: When thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt, ye shall serve God upon this mountain.
So it came to pass that at Mount Sinai YHVH called unto Moses and gave Him a Torah math book and told Moses to give the Torah math book to His people.
KJV Exodus 19:3 And Moses went up unto God, and the LORD called unto him out of the mountain, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel;
After Moses gave the Torah math book to YHVH's people and when the people saw the Torah math book and that the Torah math book contained all the questions and all the answers to the Torah math test, the people were excited to receive the Torah math book. When Moses told the people of YHVH that YHVH was going to give them a Torah math test and said to them:
KJV Deuteronomy 4:2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.
and that YHVH was going to bless His people if they got an "A" on the Torah math test:
KJV Exodus 19:5 Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:
KJV Exodus 19:6 And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.
Then, the people of YHVH replied to that the Torah math test was TOO EASY! So, the people of YHVH replied to Moses:
"Moses, tell YHVH that we will receive His Torah math book and take His Torah math test. When we read with you the contents of the Torah math book, we see that YHVH has given us the questions and the answers to His next Torah math test that He is going to give us. Tell YHVH to give us the Torah math book and the Torah math test because we know that when we get an "A" on the Torah math test that we will be blessed!"
KJV Exodus 19:8 And all the people answered together, and said, All that the LORD hath spoken we will do. And Moses returned the words of the people unto the LORD.
When YHVH heard that His people agreed to receive the Torah math test and take the Torah math test, YHVH reminded His people that if they took the Torah math test and failed that He was going to send them back to school (exiled into the nations) until they could study some more and pass the Torah math test. Meanwhile, they would be mocked for not being able to pass a Torah math test where you are given the questions and the answers when the people who didn't take the Torah math test would hear that the people of YHVH couldn't pass the Torah math test which was OPEN BOOK!
KJV Deuteronomy 28:15 But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee:
KJV Deuteronomy 28:36 The LORD shall bring thee, and thy king which thou shalt set over thee, unto a nation which neither thou nor thy fathers have known; and there shalt thou serve other gods, wood and stone.
KJV Deuteronomy 28:37 And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword, among all nations whither the LORD shall lead thee.
Then, YHVH said to His people that:
If they passed the Torah math test that they would teach other students that YHVH gives easy Torah math tests which contains the questions and the answers in a Torah math book
KJV Deuteronomy 28:1 And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth:
Finally, YHVH reminded His people one more time that MAIN question and answer to their Torah math test.
KJV Deuteronomy 4:2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.
JOSHUA IS TOLD THE TORAH MATH QUESTION
KJV Joshua 1:7 Only be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: TURN NOT from it to the RIGHT HAND or to the LEFT, that thou mayest prosper whithersoever thou goest.
KJV Joshua 1:8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is WRITTEN therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.
So, YHVH told Joshua to study the Torah math book and the Torah math test.
Don't Turn from Right (don't add) or from the Left (don't subtract)
from what is WRITTEN in the Torah math book.
JOSHUA TELLS THE MATH QUESTION TO YHVH'S PEOPLE
When YHVH reiterated to Joshua:
KJV Joshua 1:7 Only be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: TURN NOT from it to the RIGHT HAND or to the LEFT, that thou mayest prosper whithersoever thou goest.
KJV Joshua 1:8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is WRITTEN therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.
what YHVH had told Moses:
KJV Deuteronomy 4:2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.
Joshua was encouraged that this was an easy Torah math test. So, Joshua was eager to tell the people of YHVH.
KJV Joshua 1:10 Then Joshua commanded the officers of the people, saying,
Then, the people told Joshua that they were confident that they could pass the Torah math test because they were given the questions and the answers to the Torah math test and the Torah math test was going to be OPEN BOOK. So, the people of YHVH said to Joshua:
KJV Joshua 1:17 According as we hearkened unto Moses in all things, so
will we hearken unto thee: only the LORD thy God be with thee, as he
was with Moses.
THE PEOPLE OF YHVH FLUNK THE TORAH MATH TEST
KJV Judges 2:17 And yet they would not hearken unto their judges, but
they went a whoring after other gods, and bowed themselves unto them:
they turned quickly out of the way which their fathers walked in,
obeying the commandments of the LORD; but they did not so.
YHVH SENDS PROPHETS TO HELP THE PEOPLE PASS THE MATH TORAH TEST
When YHVH saw that the people coulnd't pass His Torah math test that He gave to His people when He gave them the questions and the answers and that the Torah math test was OPEN BOOK, He was moved with compassion and sent prophets to encouraged the people of YHVH to pass the Torah math test.
KJV 2 Kings 17:13 Yet the LORD testified against Israel, and against Judah, by all the prophets, and by all the seers, saying, Turn ye from your evil ways, and keep my commandments and my statutes, according to all the law which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you by my servants the prophets.
However, the people of YHVH refused to study for the Torah math test.
KJV 2 Kings 17:15 And they rejected his statutes, and his covenant
that he made with their fathers, and his testimonies which he
testified against them ...
THE PEPLE OF YHVH WANT A KING
One day the people of YHVH wanted a King to guide them. At that time, YHVH told His people that they shouldn't have a King because the King won't teach Torah math to His people and couldn't keep Torah math for himself.
KJV 1 Samuel 8:6 But the thing displeased Samuel, when they said, Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed unto the LORD.
KJV 1 Samuel 8:9 Now therefore hearken unto their voice: howbeit yet protest solemnly unto them, and shew them the manner of the king that shall reign over them.
KJV 1 Samuel 8:11 And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you: He will take your sons, and appoint them for himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen; and some shall run before his chariots.
KJV 1 Samuel 8:17 He will take the tenth of your sheep: and ye shall be his servants.
KJV 1 Samuel 8:18 And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye shall have chosen you; and the LORD will not hear you in that day.
KJV 1 Samuel 8:19 Nevertheless the people refused to obey the voice of Samuel; and they said, Nay; but we will have a king over us;
However, YHVH was prepared for when the people wanted a King over them. So, YHVH put in His Torah math book that the King needed to have a copy of the Torah math book and study it.
KJV Deuteronomy 17:14 When thou art come unto the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, and shalt possess it, and shalt dwell therein, and shalt say, I will set a king over me, like as all the nations that are about me;
KJV Deuteronomy 17:15 Thou shalt in any wise set him king over thee, whom the LORD thy God shall choose: one from among thy brethren shalt thou set king over thee: thou mayest not set a stranger over thee, which is not thy brother.
KJV Deuteronomy 17:16 But he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor cause the people to return to Egypt, to the end that he should multiply horses: forasmuch as the LORD hath said unto you, Ye shall henceforth return no more that way.
KJV Deuteronomy 17:17 Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away: neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold.
KJV Deuteronomy 17:18 And it shall be, when he sitteth upon the throne of his kingdom, that he shall write him a copy of this law in a book out of that which is before the priests the Levites:
KJV Deuteronomy 17:19 And it shall be with him, and he shall read
therein all the days of his life: that he may learn to fear the LORD
his God, to keep all the words of this law and these statutes, to do
them:
