The next installment of Isaiah is available by clicking here. Do you think of yourself as a "sinner" (as opposed to you "having sinned")? Here's a new article regarding why that thinking can be extremely dangerous ground, click here.

Deuteronomy 21-23

1. Why did YAHWEH turn Balaam's curse into a blessing for the Israelites (23:5)?

So the Israelites would have food and drink. Because YAHWEH hated Balaam. He never did that, it stayed a curse. Because YAHWEH loves the Israelites.

2. Why should you put a fence ("parapet") around a roof (22:8)?

To avoid guilt on your household if someone falls off. To look pretty. You don't need a fence on the roof. To hang plants from.

3. What city would be responsible to ask for atonement when someone is found dead lying in a field (21:3)?

Damascus. The city closest to the field. New York. Jerusalem.

4. When you make a vow to YAHWEH, when should it be fulfilled (23:21)?

Never, not that important. Whenever you get around to it. As soon as possible, without delay. Before the next jubilee year.

5. If a man is put to death and hung on a tree, when is he to be buried (21:23)?

The next day. The following week. No time limit. The day, not remaining overnight.

6. Why are we instructed NOT to plan different kinds of seed in our vineyards (fields) (22:9)?

Actually, never given instructions on this. The fruit (or produce) will be defiled. Result will taste better. With modern technology, this is irrelevant.

7. Who are we allowed to charge interest to (23:20)?

A foreigner. A brother. No one. Everyone.

8. What are we instructed to do if we find a brother's animal going astray (22:1-4)?

Kill it for food and have a feast. Shoo it away so it goes home. Call the local authorities to capture it. Care for it until you can return it to your brother.

9. What was to be done to a stubborn and rebellious son (21:21)?

Put in prison. Nothing. Stoned to death. Put on the street to fend for himself.

10. Why will no Ammonite or Moabite enter the Assembly of YAHWEH (23:4)?

This is not true--all can enter. Because they did not assist the Israelites and hired Balaam. Because they all yelled at the Israelites. Because they tried to poison the Israelites.
