And thou shalt take no gift: for the gift blindeth the wise, and perverteth the words of the righteous.
No aceptes sobornos, porque los sobornos ciegan aun a los sabios y tuercen las palabras de los que tratan de hacer lo correcto.
Los sobornos corrompen el juicio y la justicia, incluso de las personas sabias.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the historical context of Exodus, God was giving the Israelites a set of laws to guide their society as they prepared to enter the Promised Land, emphasizing justice and moral integrity in their dealings. This command against accepting gifts specifically addressed the dangers of bribery in judicial matters, which was a widespread issue in ancient Near Eastern cultures and could lead to unfair verdicts by influencing even wise leaders. By prohibiting such practices, God aimed to set His people apart as a nation committed to righteousness and impartiality.
