20:6
As in Lev 19:31 we have a clear prohibition of consulting mediums or spiritists. This would normally be done in an attempt to find out what was going to happen in the future. God speaks of people who seek out mediums or spiritists as prostituting themselves, they are giving themselves over to evil spirits. The people of God should be a people who put their complete trust in the Lord. He is our security.
20:7,8
Most of the commands here are about things that we should not do. In these two verse we have a reminder of what we should be like. We are to be wholly dedicated to the Lord, we are to be holy. This involves keeping His decrees, because He is the Lord. He is the only one with all power and authority. And He makes us holy. He sets us apart. We should not expect to be like the world, for God has set us apart for His purposes.
