OATH - O>@ - The principle on which an oath is held to be binding is incidentally laid down in kjv@Hebrews:6:16) viz. as an ultimate appeal to divine authority to ratify an assertion. On the same principle, that oath has always been held most binding which appealed to the highest authority, as regards both individuals and communities. As a consequence of this principle, appeals to God’s name on the one hand, and to heathen deities on the other, are treated in scripture as tests of allegiance. kjv@Exodus:23:13 kjv@Exodus:34:6 kjv@Exodus:29:12 ) etc. So also the sovereign’s name is sometimes used as a form of obligation. kjv@Genesis:42:15; 2 Samuel 11:11; 14:19) Other forms of oath, serious or frivolous, are mentioned, some of which are condemned by our Lord. kjv@Matthew:6:33 kjv@Matthew:23:16-22) and see kjv@James:5:12) (There is, however, a world-wide difference between a solemn appeal to God and profane swearing.) The forms of adjuration mentioned in Scripture are
Lifting up the hand. Witnesses laid their hands on the head of the accused. kjv@Genesis:14:22; kjv@Leviticus:24:14 kjv@Leviticus:17:7; kjv@Isaiah:3:7) Putting the hand under the thigh of the person to whom the Promise was made. kjv@Genesis:24:2 kjv@Genesis:47:29) Oaths were sometimes taken before the altar, or, as some understand the passage, if the persons were not in Jerusalem, in a position looking toward the temple. (Kings:8:31; kjv@2Chronicles:6:22) Dividing a victim and passing between or distributing the pieces. kjv@Genesis:15:10 kjv@Genesis:15:17 kjv@Jeremiah:34:18) As the sanctity of oaths was carefully inculcated by the law, so the crime of perjury was strongly condemned; and to a false witness the same punishment was assigned which was due for the crime to which he testified. kjv@Exodus:20:7; kjv@Leviticus:19:12)

Oath @ a solemn appeal to God, permitted on fitting occasions kjv@Deuteronomy:6:13; kjv@Jeremiah:4:2), in various forms kjv@Genesis:16:5; kjv@2Samuel:12:5; kjv@Ruth:1:17; kjv@Hosea:4:15; kjv@Romans:1:9), and taken in different ways kjv@Genesis:14:22 kjv@Genesis:24:2; kjv@2Chronicals:6:22). God is represented as taking an oath kjv@Hebrews:6:16-18), so also Christ kjv@Matthew:26:64), and Paul kjv@Romans:9:1; kjv@Galatians:1:20; kjv@Philippians:1:8). The precept, "Swear not at all," refers probably to ordinary conversation between man and man kjv@Matthew:5:34 kjv@Matthew:5:37). But if the words are taken as referring to oaths, then their intention may have been to show "that the proper state of Christians is to require no oaths; that when evil is expelled from among them every yea and nay will be as decisive as an oath, every promise as binding as a vow."
