(1) *This verse constitutes 12.32 in some editions, so that chapter 13 starts with the next verse. Be careful to observe only that which I enjoin upon you: neither add to it nor take away from it. (2) If there appears among you a prophet or a dream-diviner, who gives you a sign or a portent, (3) saying, “Let us follow and worship another god”—whom you have not experienced*whom you have not experienced See note at 11.28. —even if the sign or portent named to you comes true, (4) do not heed the words of that prophet or that dream-diviner. For your God יהוה is testing you to see whether you really love your God יהוה with all your heart and soul.

Foundations of Torah, ch. 8:
The Jews did not believe in Moses, our teacher, because of the miracles he performed. Whenever anyone’s belief is based on seeing miracles, he has lingering doubts, because it is possible the miracles were performed through magic or sorcery. All of the miracles performed by Moses in the desert were because they were necessary, and not as proof of his prophecy.
What then was the basis of [Jewish] belief? The Revelation at Mount Sinai, which we saw with our own eyes and heard with our own ears, not dependent on the testimony of others… as it says, "Face to face, God spoke with you…" The Torah also states: "God did not make this covenant with our fathers, but with us—who are all here alive today." (Deut. 5:3)
