Exodus Chapters 20-40

What I got: Take the covenant seriously

Thoughts: Moses was a man of great faith and he was not afraid to have great expectations. He went up and down Mount Sinai to hear the word of God, and he asked God questions so that he was clear on his responsibilities. Often we are taught not to question God, but questioning is fine as long as you obey. Moses steadfastly went after his blessings and the blessings of his future generations. The Lord had big plans for the Israelites and even though they sometimes faltered he did not break his covenant with them.

Questions: Has anyone built a replica of the tabernacle and tent? I think it would be cool to see all the bronze, gold, linen, and scarlet purple and blue yarn.

Looking Forward: The Book of Leviticus is next, which is the story of the Levites. They are the tribe of priests ordained by God. I think this book will be interesting, and perhaps explain some of the procedural things that happen in church.
