DEUTERONOMY 10

MOSES ENCOURAGES THE ISRAELITES TO FEAR THE LORD 

After breaking the stone tablets with the Ten Commandments on them in anger upon the Israelites' disobedience, Moses explains that God gave them new tablets that now reside in the ark of the covenant. In these chapters, Moses is recalling the journey that the Israelites have been on since Egypt. 

Moses tells the Israelites to circumcise their hearts, which might sound odd, but represents a transformation and commitment to God. The Israelites are required to fear the Lord, walk in all His ways, love Him, serve Him with all their hearts and souls, and keep the commandments.
