Deuteronomy 18:21-22

Context
18:21 Now if you say to yourselves,¹ ‘How can we tell that a message is not from the Lord?’² – 18:22 whenever a prophet speaks in my³ name and the prediction⁴ is not fulfilled,⁵ then I have⁶ not spoken it;⁷ the prophet has presumed to speak it, so you need not fear him.”

¹tn Heb “in your heart.”

²tn Heb “know the word which the Lord has not spoken.” The issue here is not understanding the meaning of the message, but distinguishing a genuine prophetic word from a false one.

³tn Heb “the Lord’s.” See note on the word “his” in v. 5.

⁴tn Heb “the word,” but a predictive word is in view here. Cf. NAB “his oracle.”

⁵tn Heb “does not happen or come to pass.”

⁶tn Heb “the Lord has.” See note on the word “his” in v. 5.

⁷tn Heb “that is the word which the Lord has not spoken.”
