The passage we are memorizing and meditating on together today comes from chapter 7:9 of the fifth book of the Old Testament, Deuteronomy. This book "contains the words that Moses spoke to all the people of Israel in the wilderness east of the Jordan, in the plains of Moab." While much of the law contained in the book is a reiteration of what is mentioned in Exodus, Leviticus, and Numbers, Deuteronomy not only has a proclamation of God's law, but also more loving reminders and exhortations with a greater sense of urgency. The generation that came out of Egypt across the Red Sea could not enter the Promised Land due to a lack of faith and lived a wandering and uncertain life in the Sinai wilderness for 40 years. At that time, the Israelites were on the edge of the Promised Land. Old Moses, the leader of Israel, finally taught the second generation not to forget the historical fact that the LORD had rescued the Israelites who were slaves, emphasized the necessity of obeying God's law, and exhorted the new generation of God's people that the Lord God's faithfulness and love would never change. This verse mentions "you" affectionately twice. The phrase "a thousand generations" is a common idiom to describe God's promise to His people, which means "forever". Dear friend, do you want to know such a true and living God? "There is no other God besides Him." Because of the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus, the Son of God, you, too, can today, through faith in Jesus Christ, cease to be a slave to sin and become one of God's chosen people, "who shall not perish, but have everlasting life".
