I’M TELLING YOU AGAIN







Deuteronomy
1:5









How
many times you have reminded your children not to touch a hot stove or say a
bad word? It seems that some things just have to be repeated again and again,
from one generation to next.





As we
read through Deuteronomy this month, you may think to yourself, ”I’ve read this
before.” And you probably have in Exodus, Leviticus, or Numbers.





So why
the repetition? In those books Moses was speaking to one generation of the
children of Israel. But that generation died in the desert, so in Deuteronomy
Moses speaks to the next generation also. Moses repeats God’s instruction from
Mount Sinai and retraces Israel’s travels in the desert so that this new
generation will know how to obey God as they enter the promised land.





Deuteronomy
calls this combination of history and instruction “this law.” Like the
constitutional of your country, “this law” describes how Israel will live among
other nations. “This law” is not just a code. It is God’s voice – his Sinai
speech repeated by the greatest prophet of the Old Testament. When Moses spoke
“this law” Israel heard God’s voice.





Moses
repeated these instructions so that all generation of God’s people could live
safely in God’s presence. Later God also spoke through the greatest prophet of
all: Jesus Christ. Let us hear God’s words and live.
