Deuteronomy 10:13 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 10:13

To keep the commandments of the Lord, and his statutes

Deuteronomy 10:13 In-Context

11 Then the LORD told me: Get going. Lead the people so they can enter and take possession of the land that I promised I'd give to their ancestors.
12 Now in light of all that, Israel, what does the LORD your God ask of you? Only this: to revere the LORD your God by walking in all his ways, by loving him, by serving the LORD your God with all your heart and being,
13 and by keeping the LORD's commandments and his regulations that I'm commanding you right now. It's for your own good!
14 Clearly, the LORD owns the sky, the highest heavens, the earth, and everything in it.
15 But the LORD adored your ancestors, loving them and choosing the descendants that followed them—you!—from all other people. That's how things still stand now.
