Done! Whew! I think I have the rules memorized too! No sleeping with your mother or the sheep... don't kill anyone on purpose... all the basics... over and over Mo tells the people that God, Your God will bless you if you obey! Hmmm not much new there. Not as easy as it sounds, Obviously!! Points I found interesting: Actually there were a lot, but this is the Condensed version!!
This version very clearly says we should be Republicans. ch 16:20 "The right! The right! Pursue only what's right! It's the only way you can really live and possess the land that God, your God, is giving you." (Ok, I thought it was funny!)
Thought it interesting in 17:17 talking about future kings, no harem, no storing up treasures. Hmmm Solomon forgot this part? ch 18:20-22 talks about prophets and how to tell if they are really from God.The rule is pretty easy, if it doesn't come true, can't be from God. I guess that leaves the leaders of LDS, JW etc kinda hanging.
Another favorite was ch 29:29 God, our God, will take care of the hidden things but the revealed things are our business.
And the all time Favorite verse in this whole book!!!! hehehe ch 24:5
instructions for newly married men. :D "He gets one year off simply to be at home making his wife happy." Love it! So, if he still has to go to work that year, how long would it take to work off that year of "making his wife Happy"??
Ok, it was close but that really wasn't my favorite, the best part is ch 31:6
"Be strong. Take courage. Don't be intimidated. Don't give them a second thought because God, your God, is striding ahead of you. He's right there with you. He won't let you down; he won't leave you."
I need to memorize that!
