And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein.
Cuando haces una promesa usando el templo como tu garantía, en realidad estás haciendo esa promesa delante de Dios mismo, porque esa es su casa.
Jurar por el templo es jurar ante Dios, porque el templo es la casa de Dios.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the first century, Jewish religious leaders often made oaths by sacred objects like the temple to avoid directly invoking God's name, believing it made their promises less binding if they swore by something indirect. Jesus, in Matthew 23, was addressing the hypocrisy of the scribes and Pharisees during His ministry in Jerusalem, pointing out that such oaths still involved God, who dwelt in the temple. This teaching was part of a larger critique of empty religious practices that lacked true devotion.
