Deuteronomy 13-17, Reject Idolatry, Keep The Laws and Festivals, Sleep Bible Reading

A soothing reading of chapters 13-17 in Deuteronomy. These passages emphasize the importance of remaining faithful to God by rejecting idolatry, even when it’s promoted by prophets, loved ones, or entire communities. They establish laws for clean and unclean foods, tithing, and caring for the poor, especially during the sabbatical year. Instructions are given for celebrating key religious festivals and appointing fair judges to uphold justice. Guidelines for future kings stress humility, obedience to God’s law, and avoiding excess in wealth or power.
