Reminder of the Horeb Covenant

4:9 Again, however, pay very careful attention, ¹  lest you forget the things you have seen and disregard them for the rest of your life; instead teach them to your children and grandchildren.

Ulangan 4:15-16

The Nature of Israel’s God

4:15 Be very careful, ²  then, because you saw no form at the time the Lord spoke to you at Horeb from the middle of the fire. 4:16 I say this ³  so you will not corrupt yourselves by making an image in the form of any kind of figure. This includes the likeness of a human male or female,

Ulangan 27:9

27:9 Then Moses and the Levitical priests spoke to all Israel: “Be quiet and pay attention, Israel. Today you have become the people of the Lord your God.

[4:9]  ¹ tn Heb “watch yourself and watch your soul carefully.”

[4:15]  ² tn Heb “give great care to your souls.”

[4:16]  ³ tn The words “I say this” are supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons. In the Hebrew text v. 16 is subordinated to “Be careful” in v. 15, but this makes for an unduly long sentence in English.
