General references

Righteousness will be ours if we are careful to follow every one of these commands before the Lord our God, as He has commanded us.’

It is not in heaven so that you have to ask, ‘Who will go up to heaven, get it for us, and proclaim it to us so that we may follow it?’

For they are not meaningless words to you but they are your life, and by them you will live long in the land you are crossing the Jordan to possess.”
