Deuteronomy - Chapter-10

Chapter Summary

Further warnings and exhortation and reminders of God's dealings.

The Lord uses the exact same words on the 2nd set of tablets that He used for the 1st set (verse 2). Why is this so important? How does this reveal how God values his written word?
Why do you think there were two tablets? Couldn't the Ten Commandments fit on one tablet? Why were they stored in the ark instead of mounted in a public place?
Why did the tribe of Levi not have an inheritance in the promised land? Is this true for believers today? Why or why not?
Read Micah 6:8. How is this similar to Deuteronomy 10:12-13? What differences are there? Why do you think they needed another reminder of God's desires?
Why do you think that God chose the Israelites as His people? They aren't the strongest or morally superior, so what drew God to them?
What is the significance of "circumcising your heart?" Why is this necessary?
Why does the Lord highlight the need for justice for the fatherless, the widows, and the resident alien? Who would be some similar examples today?
How can you execute justice for the fatherless, the widows, and the resident aliens this week?
Why does the Bible tell us to take oaths in the Lord's name here in Deuteronomy 10:20, but in Matthew 5:33-37 Jesus tells us not to do that? How should we reconcile these verses?
What is one awe-inspiring act that the Lord did in your life? What is preventing you from sharing that with the people around you this week? Who will you commit to sharing with?
