It is often used to describe the authoritative instructions given by God, prophets, apostles, or other leaders within the biblical narrative. The concept of enjoining is closely related to obedience, duty, and the fulfillment of divine or moral law.<br><br><b>Old Testament Context</b><br><br>In the Old Testament, the concept of enjoining is frequently associated with the commandments and laws given by God to the people of Israel. For example, in <a href="/deuteronomy/6.htm">Deuteronomy 6:1</a>, Moses speaks to the Israelites about the commandments, statutes, and judgments that God has enjoined upon them: "These are the commandments and statutes and ordinances that the LORD your God has instructed me to teach you to follow in the land that you are about to enter and possess."<br><br>The prophets also enjoined the people to return to the covenant and follow God's laws. In <a href="/jeremiah/7-23.htm">Jeremiah 7:23</a>, God enjoins the Israelites through the prophet: "But this is what I commanded them: 'Obey My voice, and I will be your God, and you will be My people. Walk in all the ways I have commanded you, that it may go well with you.'"<br><br><b>New Testament Context</b><br><br>In the New Testament, the concept of enjoining is often seen in the teachings and instructions of Jesus Christ and the apostles. Jesus enjoins His followers to love one another and to keep His commandments as a demonstration of their love for Him. In <a href="/john/15-12.htm">John 15:12</a>, Jesus states, "This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you."<br><br>The apostle Paul frequently enjoins the early Christian communities to live according to the teachings of Christ and to uphold the moral and ethical standards of the faith. In <a href="/1_thessalonians/4.htm">1 Thessalonians 4:1</a>, Paul writes, "Finally, brothers, we ask and encourage you in the Lord Jesus to live in a way that is pleasing to God, just as you have received from us."<br><br><b>Theological Implications</b><br><br>The act of enjoining in the Bible underscores the importance of authority and obedience in the relationship between God and His people. It reflects the belief that God's commands are not arbitrary but are given for the well-being and spiritual growth of His followers. Enjoining also highlights the role of leaders and teachers in guiding others to live according to God's will.<br><br>In a broader sense, enjoining serves as a reminder of the covenant relationship between God and humanity, where God provides guidance and instruction, and His people are called to respond in faith and obedience. This dynamic is central to the biblical narrative and the life of faith, emphasizing the transformative power of living in accordance with divine instruction.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
