Setting the Stage:
Body
God's words, promises, and acts are worth recounting (30-35).
Joshua led the people in covenant renewal.
Defeating Ai essentially opened up the region for Joshua to begin a major military campaign. The foothold had been established and a military leader would likely have thought it appropriate to push the advantage and secure the entire central region. However, Joshua did something different.
The Significance
In Deuteronomy 27:1-8 Moses commanded Israel to perform a covenant renewal ceremony on Mt. Ebal upon entering the land.
With the entryway cities in ruin Israel could now perform this important ceremony.
The march from the camp at Gilgal northward would have been about 30 miles through sparsely populated areas.
Why here? because from these centrally located peaks most of the promised land can be seen.
The Process
The alter was erected
Sacrifices made
The law duplicated
Joshua led the people in corporate reading of the Law.
A huge natural amphitheater still exists in this place today.
The reading, as described/commanded in Deut. 27:15-26 would have included going over all the curses.
Verse 34 indicates that Joshua covered both blessings and curses.
MTR: Commit to reading your Bible daily this week (5 min., 10 min. 30 min. 60 min.)
==Christ's payment for sins is worth recounting (11)
