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 (11:23-29)

The proclamation of the Lord's Supper is significant (26).

The seriousness of the Lord's Supper demands attention (27-29).

The memorial of the Lord's Supper should be celebrated (23-26).

The broken Body (23-24)

The covenant of the blood (25)

Your personal decision to place your complete faith in Christ is worth recounting (Acts 2:36-41)

The nagging question we each must answer is that of what do we do with our sin (36-37).

The solution you need is to repent and believe in Christ's atonement (38-39).

The natural next step is baptism (40-41).
