Deuteronomy 27:9-10

The Covenant Written, Worshiped, and Affirmed Under Curse

Deuteronomy 27 moves from the public inscription of the law in the land, to altar-centered covenant worship, to Israel's corporate identity as the LORD's people, and finally to the solemn communal affirmation of covenant curses against hidden and public rebellion.

10 You shall therefore obey the voice of the LORD your God and follow His commandments and statutes I am giving you today.”
