Background:
- A covenant is more than just a contract between two parties. Yes it is a mutual agreement, but the relationship between the two parties isn't based on either party holding up its end of the bargain. A covenant is based on the two parties already having a relationship with each other. No matter whether each end is held up, the relationship still stands.
- Before entering the presence of God, the Israelites consecrated themselves by participating in ritual washing of their bodies and clothes. In this time, they were also expected to wash their hearts and minds of any impurities.
Questions and Comments:
- God calls Israel a kingdom of priests. What does this mean for them and for those who claim the name of Christ?
- I found 19:21 very interesting
- Ten simple commandments. Black and white right?
