Then God said, "I'm not going to breathe life into men and women endlessly. Eventually they're going to die; from now on they can expect a life span of 120 years."
“But Lord!” Moses objected. “My own people won’t listen to me anymore. How can I expect Pharaoh to listen? I’m such a clumsy speaker!
In the morning, LORD, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly.
God sticks his head out of heaven. He looks around. He's looking for someone not stupid— one man, even, God-expectant, just one God-ready woman.
I have chosen you as my people, and I expect you to obey my laws.
So now Israel, what do you think God expects from you? Just this: Live in his presence in holy reverence, follow the road he sets out for you, love him, serve God, your God, with everything you have in you, obey the commandments and regulations of God that I'm commanding you today—live a good life.
Genesis 6:3 Exodus 6:12 Psalm 5:3 Psalm 14:2 Leviticus 20:8 Deuteronomy 10:12
What was expected under LAW had been intensified under the law of LOVE!
