Filii hominum, usquequo gravi corde ? Ut quid diligitis vanitatem, et quæritis mendacium ?
quoniam doctrinam bonam tribuam vobis, legem meam ne derelinquatis.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
For I give you good doctrine,.... Whose author, matter, use, and tendency, are good, and therefore should be received; so the Gospel is called, 1 Timothy 4:6; and no other is here meant: it is the doctrine concerning Wisdom or Christ, as the following verses show; which serves to exalt him, and makes for the good and welfare of immortal souls; and such is the doctrine of the Scriptures, of Christ and his apostles, even all the doctrines and truths of the Gospel;
forsake you not my law; or "doctrine" o; not the law given on Mount Sinai, as Gersom interprets it; but the doctrine of Christ, which goes out from Mount Zion: this the children of Wisdom should not neglect, relinquish, drop, or depart from; but should keep it, and abide by it.
o תורתי "doctrinam meam", Junius Tremellius, Piscator, Amama "instructionem meam", Schultens.
