Deuteronomy 13:3

Context
13:3 You must not listen to the words of that prophet or dreamer,¹ for the Lord your God will be testing you to see if you love him² with all your mind and being.³

Deuteronomy 13:5

Context
13:5 As for that prophet or dreamer,⁴ he must be executed because he encouraged rebellion against the Lord your God who brought you from the land of Egypt, redeeming you from that place of slavery, and because he has tried to entice you from the way the Lord your God has commanded you to go. In this way you must purge out evil from within.⁵

¹tn Heb “or dreamer of dreams.” See note on this expression in v. 1.

²tn Heb “the Lord your God.” The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.

³tn Heb “all your heart and soul” (so NRSV, CEV, NLT); or “heart and being” (NCV “your whole being”). See note on the word “being” in Deut 6:5.

⁴tn Heb “or dreamer of dreams.” See note on this expression in v. 1.

⁵tn Heb “your midst” (so NAB, NRSV). The severity of the judgment here (i.e., capital punishment) is because of the severity of the sin, namely, high treason against the Great King. Idolatry is a violation of the first two commandments (Deut 5:6-10) as well as the spirit and intent of the Shema (Deut 6:4-5).
