September 13, 2011 – Deuteronomy 5

Obey and you will have a long life. Also, your generations will be blessed to the 1,000^th generation. When you think about a generation as 25 years, 2500 years is about 500 years before Christ. So those that were true to God during Israel’s exile are still being blessed.

We see the 10 Commandments here, but this is not the only rules. Much like we have major laws, don’t drink and drive, they are followed by many different particulars, the same thing with God’s law with Israel. Though shall not kill, followed by different conditions for different circumstances.
