Previous Episode: Exodus 17-20:21, Proverbs 1
Next Episode: Exodus 25-28, Proverbs 3

On today’s episode God begins to give very specific commands to the Israelite people on what it looks like to be fair, kind, and gracious to one another. The Lord’s justice is severe for those who are selfish and outright rebellious, but gracious toward those who have no intention of causing harm. As you listen, it can be tempting to think that these are dry or irrelevant, but put yourself in the shoes/sandals of the original audience, whose livelihood wasn’t based on financial income, but on livestock, crops, and community with one another. Imagine yourself in each situation, & the text becomes much more interesting.
