The Law … Again – Deuteronomy E4
Playback speed
In the second movement of Deuteronomy, Moses gives Israel the law … again. But this time, he’s not talking to a nomadic group of people wandering the desert—he’s talking to the next generation preparing to settle in a permanent home for the first time. As they move into the land, their laws and their lives will need to look a little different. But in what way? In this episode, join Tim and Jon as they discuss how the law was always meant to form Israel (and modern readers) into people of wisdom, justice, and righteousness.View full show notes from this episode →Timestamps Part one (0:00-19:35)Part two (19:35-34:39)Part three (34:39-50:46)Part four (50:46-1:13:08)Referenced ResourcesZondervan Illustrated Bible Backgrounds Commentary, Clinton E.
