remove.
Prov. 23:10• 10Remove not the old landmark; and enter not into the fields of the fatherless: (Prov. 23:10)
;
Deut. 19:14• 14Thou shalt not remove thy neighbor's landmark, which they of old time have set in thine inheritance, which thou shalt inherit in the land that the Lord thy God giveth thee to possess it. (Deut. 19:14)
;
Deut. 27:17• 17Cursed be he that removeth his neighbor's landmark. And all the people shall say, Amen. (Deut. 27:17)
;
Job 24:2• 2Some remove the landmarks; they violently take away flocks, and feed thereof. (Job 24:2)
landmark.
or, bound.
• This is almost a repetition of that which the Lord, of old, had spoken through Moses: “Thou shalt not remove thy neighbor’s landmark, which they of old time have set in thine inheritance, which thou shalt inherit in the land that the Lord thy God giveth thee to possess it” (Deut. 19:14). (“Proverbs Twenty-Two” by H.A. Ironside)
• In this dispensation of grace the portion of the people of God is heavenly, not earthly. Their inheritance is in the precious truth which He has committed to us. To remove the landmarks—the great distinguishing doctrines of Scripture—will be to incur the divine displeasure. Yet, alas, this is the wretched business in which many learned doctors and wiseacres are engaged today. Nothing is too sacred for their irreverent handling. Precious truths like those of Atonement and Justification by Faith—yea, even the mystery of the Holy Trinity and the Person of the Lord Jesus Christ—are, in their eyes, but common things. (“Proverbs Twenty-Two” by H.A. Ironside)
