Adding and Detracting from Torah
Exegetical Approaches
Limited to Specific Mitzvot
The prohibition relates only to the realm of worship of Hashem and the prohibition of idolatry.
Related to Details of Mitzvah Performance
The prohibition refers only to adding to or subtracting from the details of an already existing mitzvah, not to instituting new command.
Sources:Sifre Devarim, Rashi, R. Yosef Bekhor Shor, Raavad, Semag, ?Meiri?, Sefer HaChinukh, R. Bachya, R"Y Albo
Applicable Only to the Masses
The directive is aimed only at the masses. Leaders such as prophets or judges are given the right to add to the Torah's commandments.
