Exodus Study (pt. 22)
The section of Exodus that scholars refer to as "The Book of the Covenant" consist of chapters 21-23.
Within these chapters are numerous commandments that, contrary to popular belief, do not concern individual holiness. Instead, they focus on structuring a good and just society where the presence of God dwells and humanity flourishes. Additionally, most of these commandments are found within the law codes of other ancient Near East cultures. In today's video, we will explore how the commandments in the Bible are always an improvement on the prevailing laws of Israel's neighbors and how those improvements are always in support of the individual that is made in the Image of God.
