The Bible OverBrew - Bible in a YearSample
Week 9. Day 2. Deuteronomy 22-25.
There are various laws in this section, which may seem hard to understand today. One of the reasons God gave his people so many laws is that he cares about people! He wants his people to treat each other well.
24:17 Note the trio who deserve particular protection
(also 24:19, 20, 21; 26:12, 13)
This was a radical law in the ancient world. Many cultures would want to protect orphans and widows, but not care for foreigners. This law reflects God’s heart to protect the weakest and most vulnerable, and also reflects that fact that Israel were foreigners in Egypt.
NOTE: Days 1-5 of each week contain the scripture reading for that week. Day 6 has just the 'key chapters'. If you want a briefer version of this plan that still takes you through the whole Bible, you could just read the key chapters featured on day 6. Day 7 has the podcast video where we discuss the week's reading.
About this Plan
The Bible OverBrew is a friendly virtual book group, helping you read the Bible in big chunks, preferably with a mug of tea! Maybe you've tried to read through the Bible before, but gave up when it felt confusing or too intense? We are here to help you! We provide notes and questions to guide your reading, and note ‘key chapters’ if you don’t have time to read it all. In our podcast at the end of each week we draw out the key themes, and how it all points to Christ. We’d love you to join us!
