Deuteronomy 31:26, ““Take this Book of the Law and place it beside the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, so that it may remain there as a witness against you.” The stone tablets were placed inside the ark, but the book that Moses had written was not. The ten commandments are eternal, the book of the law that contains the history, the covenant between mankind and the Creator, the punishment for sin and the instructions for applying the law will end when heaven and earth are remade.
Thought for Today: Shabbat April 19
Have you ever asked yourself why YHVH takes anger so seriously and urges us to cast it out of our lives? It is because of what it does to other people. When we lash out at someone in anger, we hurt them and create conflict, and that is wrong. It also hurts us. It cuts us off from others and most of all it cuts us off from our Moshiach. Anger makes us preoccupied with our own problems rather than with YHVH’s will for our lives.
