Deuteronomy 25-26


Deuteronomy 25-26

This year, I plan on reading the Old Testament of the Bible within the 2012 calendar year. Follow me on this journey! 

Scripture Thought (What I Learned):

Chapter 25: Marriage Law

                In Israel, judges will pass down sentences for those who commit crimes and wickedness. Marriage law in Israel provides that if a woman's husband die and they have no children, that the brother of the husband who died shall go in unto the widow and raise children unto his brother (verse 5).

                In doing business, Moses speaks about using just weights and measurements as to not deceive. Essentially today, you could say that Moses was speaking out about proper business ethics, to be fair and proper.

                Israel is commanded to "blot out" the Amalekites from under heaven, to kill them.

Chapter 26: Law of Tithing

                If you keep the law of tithing and help out your neighbor you will be blessed. See verse 12.
