Ye shall not add, by devising other doctrines or ways of worship than what I have taught or prescribed; see Numbers 15:39,40 Deu 12:8,32 1 Kings 12:33 Proverbs 30:6 Matthew 15:9; for this were to accuse me of want of wisdom or care or faithfulness in not giving you sufficient instructions for my own service. Neither shall ye diminish, by rejecting or neglecting any thing which I have commanded, though it seem never so small.
