Deuteronomy 6:16 Do not test the LORD your God as you tested Him at Massah. I find it strange that the WHOLe sentence is very seldom quoted,

Because it's ambiguous!

Does it mean:

"Do not test the LORD! To be clear: By 'test,' I mean ONLY doing that thing you did at Massah!"

""Do not test the LORD in the manner in which you tested Him at Massah! Other tests - differing from the test at Massah - are perfectly acceptable, however."

The problem with relying upon scripture which is not susceptible to Q&A! The problem with not being able to ask "Wait a minute! What exactly do you mean by that?"

Oh?

Do not makeup your face as you did at your friends house.

Ambiguous or not?
