And Moses gathered all the congregation of the children of Israel together, and said unto them, These are the words which the LORD hath commanded, that ye should do them. (Exodus 35:1 KJV) It is argued that the commands that Moses refers to here is only in relation to the building of the Tabernacle. Just as vehemently, other scholars declare he is speaking of the entire Torah. Moses will remind the people more than 20 times that they are not only to know, understand, remember and guard the commands; but they are also to do them. Adonai knows us so well. It’s not the thought that counts. It is not enough to spend some intellectual time building a knowledge base of theological understanding. It is rather by our fruits that we shall be known. Similarly, New Testament writers re-iterate this same point: (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified. (Romans 2:13) But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. (James 1:22) Edited by MarkStaneart, Feb 26 2011, 07:06 AM.
