It's a commentary in that it was written in response to the practices of the day. It's nonfalsifiable because it can't be incorrect. No matter what you do, you can claim it didn't match what the authors intended

In the same way as the Golden Rule is non-falsifiable? I guess... but that in no way takes away from the truth of the Golden Rule.

  It's very easy to go against the golden rule. I don't want people to scream obscenities at me so I don't. If I scream obscenities at people and am upset when people respond in kind, it's clear I violated the golden rule
