what I remember:
Moses charges Israel with keeping the commands that God has given them. First to serve Him as God - not others, and to obey him. Obeying God will lead them to life. In obeying them, they will become a great and wise nation - unlike all the other nations. No other nation has a God who comes close to them when they pray. Israel is charged with the task of remembering. Remembering what God brought them through, what He did for them. God is doing a new thing with Israel - he hasn't done this with anyone else before - he chose them, brought them out of Egypt and preserved them thus far.
key verse:
He showed you things so you would know that the Lord is God. There is no other God besides him.
about God:
God gave commands for the good of Israel.(v1) Following God's commands results in wisdom and understanding that others notice. (v6) God comes new when we pray to him.(v7) The Lord your God is a jealous God. He is like a fire that burns things up.(v24) The Lord your God is a merciful God. He will not leave you or destroy you. He will not forget the agreement he made with your ancestors. He made that agreement sure with his strong promise. (v31) Know and believe today that the Lord is God. He is God in heaven above and on earth below. There is no other God! (v.35)
