Let's talk about Deuteronomy 10 in detail.

Deuteronomy 10 contains the account of God commanding Moses to make a second set of stone tablets and demanding obedience and love from the Israelites. The following is a detailed account of the main content of Deuteronomy 10.

1. Preparing the second stone tablet (10:1-5)

God commands Moses to go up the mountain again and make a second set of stone tablets. The first set of stone tablets was broken by Moses when the Israelites made the golden calf. Moses makes the stone tablets according to God’s instructions and places them in the Ark of the Covenant.

• 10:1-2 : God commands Moses to make a second set of stone tablets like the first and to inscribe on them the exact same words that were on the first tablets.
• 10:3-5 : Moses made an ark out of acacia wood and carved the second set of stone tablets and placed them in the ark.

2. The Journey of the Israelites and the Mission of the Levites (10:6-9)

Briefly describes the journey of the Israelites and the duties of the Levites. It tells the story of Aaron's death and his son Eleazar's succession to the priesthood.

• 10:6 : Aaron dies on Mount Hor, and Eleazar succeeds him as priest.
• 10:7-8 : The Israelites travel through various places. The tribe of Levi is given the task of carrying the ark of the covenant and ministering before the Lord.
• 10:9 : The Levites shall not receive any land as an inheritance, but the LORD shall be their inheritance.

3. Demanding obedience and love from the people of Israel (10:10-22)

God demands of the people of Israel that they love Him, keep His commandments, and serve Him with all their heart.

• 10:10-11 : After Moses remains in intercession with God for another 40 days, God commands the people to go and take possession of the Promised Land.
• 10:12-13 : God demands of the people of Israel fear, love, service, and keep his commandments and ordinances.
• 10:14-15 : Everything in heaven and on earth belongs to God, but God has chosen Israel in particular.
• 10:16-22 : This is an exhortation to cast away the stubbornness of the heart and neck and serve God. God is a God of justice and mercy, and the people of Israel should love and serve Him. God led them out of Egypt with great power and granted them the prosperity they have now.

Deuteronomy 10 is an important chapter in which the people of Israel renew their covenant with God, and emphasize that they should love and serve Him completely and obey His commands. Through this, they are urged to restore their relationship with God and live a life of keeping His laws.
