Contextual Overview

9 When you enter the land the Lord your God is giving you, don't learn to do the hateful things the other nations do. 10 Don't let anyone among you offer a son or daughter as a sacrifice in the fire. Don't let anyone use magic or witchcraft, or try to explain the meaning of signs. 11 Don't let anyone try to control others with magic, and don't let them be mediums or try to talk with the spirits of dead people. 12 The Lord hates anyone who does these things. Because the other nations do these things, the Lord your God will force them out of the land ahead of you. 13 But you must be innocent in the presence of the Lord your God. 14 The nations you will force out listen to people who use magic and witchcraft, but the Lord your God will not let you do those things.

Cross-References

John 2:25
He did not need anyone to tell him about people, because he knew what was in people's minds.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Thou shalt be perfect with the Lord thy God. Sincerely serve and worship him, faithfully adhere to his word, laws, statutes, and ordinances, and walk uprightly before him.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Perfect - As in Genesis 17:1; Job 1:1; Matthew 5:48. The sense is that Israel was to keep the worship of the true God wholly uncontaminated by idolatrous pollutions.
