35For the LORD had made a covenant with the Israelites and commanded them, “Do not worship other gods or bow down to them; do not serve them or sacrifice to them.
36Instead, worship the LORD, who brought you out of the land of Egypt with great power and an outstretched arm. You are to bow down to Him and offer sacrifices to Him.
37And you must always be careful to observe the statutes, ordinances, laws, and commandments He wrote for you. Do not worship other gods.
38Do not forget the covenant I have made with you. Do not worship other gods, 39but worship the LORD your God, and He will deliver you from the hands of all your enemies.”Cross References

2 Kings 17:37 Summary
[This verse is reminding us to always be careful to follow God's rules and commands, which are given to us in the Bible. By doing so, we can show our love and respect for Him, and avoid the temptation to worship other gods or idols, as warned against in Exodus 20:3-5. We can think of it like a relationship - when we love someone, we want to please them and make them happy, and following God's commands is one way we can do that, as seen in John 14:15. By obeying God's commands, we can also experience His deliverance and protection, as promised in Psalm 91:14-16.]
Frequently Asked Questions
What does it mean to 'observe the statutes, ordinances, laws, and commandments' in 2 Kings 17:37?
This means to carefully follow and obey the instructions and guidelines that God has given to us, as seen in Exodus 20:1-17 and Deuteronomy 5:6-21, which outline the Ten Commandments and other important laws.
Why is it important not to worship other gods, as mentioned in 2 Kings 17:37?
Worshiping other gods is a form of idolatry, which is forbidden by God in Exodus 20:3-5 and Deuteronomy 5:7-9, as it can lead to spiritual corruption and separation from Him.
How can we 'always be careful' to observe God's commands, as instructed in 2 Kings 17:37?
We can be careful by regularly reading and studying God's Word, as seen in Psalm 119:105, and by seeking to apply its teachings to our daily lives, with the help of the Holy Spirit, as mentioned in John 14:26.
What is the relationship between obeying God's commands and being delivered from enemies, as hinted at in 2 Kings 17:37-39?
Obeying God's commands is closely tied to trust and faith in Him, which can lead to deliverance from enemies, as seen in Psalm 91:14-16 and Romans 8:28, where God promises to work all things for the good of those who love Him.
Reflection Questions
- What are some ways that I can practically observe God's statutes and commandments in my daily life?
- How can I guard my heart against the temptation to worship other gods or idols, and instead remain faithful to the one true God?
- In what ways can I demonstrate my love and devotion to God, as a response to His love and commands?
- What are some potential consequences of not following God's commands, and how can I avoid these pitfalls in my own life?

Cambridge Bible on 2 Kings 17:37
37. which he wrote for you] The compiler of Kings considered, as we can gather from this expression, that ‘the statutes and ordinances’, even the whole Law, was written down for the Israelites, and was of divine origin. The quotations made above are found in Deuteronomy chapters 4, 5. and 6 If the compiler be, in this passage, drawing, as he assuredly does in a large part of his work, from a record nearly contemporary with the events, we have here, from some writer of the days of Hezekiah and Isaiah, a number of quotations which shew that, in some form, the fifth book of Moses belongs to a time anterior to the date which recent criticism has assigned to it. If he be here but recording his own ideas, it is manifest that he himself had no doubt about the early origin of the Book.
Barnes' Notes on 2 Kings 17:37
Which he wrote for you - It is worth observing here, first, that the author regards the whole Law as given to the Israelites in a written form; and secondly, that he looks on the real writer as God.
