Deuteronomy 23:12 - 34

It's crazy to think that I just read in 15 days what I spent an entire semester's 4-hour class studying. The Pentateuch is complete and I really enjoyed one aspect of Moses' closing (and very long) speech.

He wrote down all these instructions and gave them to the Levites to be stored and transported with the Arch of the Covenant. I'd have to guess (and was probably taught at one point) that these "instructions" eventually became the first five books of the Bible. I'm not sure if we can be completely positive, but it does make sense.

Assuming that he is speaking of what eventually became Scripture, God has established a connection between worship - the Arch and the Temple, with Scripture - "these instructions."

Yeah it is kinda simplistic, but it is very foundational. To know that Scripture and worship go hand in hand. Thank you Lord for your Word and it's blessings, instructions, and insights.
