1. God is concerned with justice so He puts rules in place for Judges. How does the belief in ONE God separate Israel from the rest of the world?
  2. God says there shouldn’t be “poor” people but then tells the people how to treat the poor. What is going on there?
  3. God tells the people not to do certain things for the sake of the dead and to refrain from eating different animals. Why does God command these things?
  4. God says not to trust people or prophets if their words don’t line up with what God has spoken. But what if they perform signs and wonders?
  5. God tells the people to destroy all the worship places in the land He has given to Israel. What exactly is He doing in this command? What is He preserving by destroying these other things?
  6. God reminds His people that He does not wink at sin. Why is it so important for us to remember all the things God has done in scripture?
  7. God makes sure that Israel understands why He destroyed certain nations and why He gave them the promised land. Is the Old Testament about works while the New Testament is about grace?
  8. God explains that He has humbled Israel for their own good. How should we view the discipline of God? What does it mean that man cannot live by bread alone?
  9. How does the present way the Israelites speak of the exodus help us with how we understand our salvation? How do we deal with the judgment of God on entire nations of people?
  10. Chad and Daniel start chapter 6 of Deuteronomy. God tells the people to listen and to teach the word of God. What is the significance of the language of milk and honey?
  11. Chad and Daniel continue discussing the “Ten Commandments”. What does it mean to take the Lord’s name in vain? What does it mean to “keep” the Sabbath?
  12. God explains what His name means and contrasts Himself with every false god. Do the “10 Commandments” apply to Christians? Is “10 commandments” the right way to view these words from God?
