From Background Notes [BN] for November 23rd
& 24th written by Pastor Bob Brown:
We belong as “his people, the sheep of
his pasture…” Ancient Israel was a distinctive people, a peculiar people, a
holy people. Their identity was bound up with the God who called them and
shaped them.
Through acts of carefully obedience,
they looked to Torah, their Bible, as the guide for every aspect of life. How
they treated others, how they worshipped, what they ate, when they rested from
work, and how they lived as families — all of these activities belonged to God,
and so, in turn, Israel belonged to God.
[BN,6]
