A Cord of Blue

Read the Story

The sad events of chapter 14 were over. Next God gave laws that began, When you have come into the land. This showed that God would still bring Israel into Canaan, even though one generation would not enter.

God described grain, oil, and wine to bring with each offering. He said there would be one law for all. The Israelite and the foreigner who lived with them had the same law. When the people sinned by mistake, the priest would make atonement, and they would be forgiven.

God told them to make fringes on the borders of their garments, with a cord of blue. When they looked at it, they would remember all Yahweh's commandments and do them. They would not follow their own heart and eyes. God said, I am Yahweh your God.

Memory Verse

I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I am Yahweh your God.”
