A Peep in Deuteronomy

Published by shinewriter at 3:20 pm under Christian Chatter Edit This

The name of this book comes from two Greek words. They are deuteros which means second and nomos which translates as law. At first look much of the information presented here is repetitious of the previous volumes of the pentateuch.

When we read a little carefully it can been seen that the tone has changed. The law has been rewritten but as in a sense more for the people. Prior to this it was the priests who administered the word of God to the children of Israel.

There was now a whole new generation. A generation that knew nothing first hand of Egypt. A generation that trusted God and obeyed His commands, or did they. The tone in this book reflects some of this.

    This book is pretty good but it’s pretty boring have you read through the whole thing….It can be pretty boring along with Leviticus and these are long books too I dig them but give me Samuel 1 + 2…
