The fruit of keeping God's commandment, with all the heart and soul faithfully and abiding by the divine covenant, is that the believers become a special people and that God elevates His people and sanctifies them: "And that He will set you high above all nations which He has made, in praise, in name, and in honor, and that you may be a holy people to the Lord your God, just as He has spoken." (Deut. 26: 19). God elevates their names, so they are attached to His great name. Heaven and earth are astonished for the honor and the splendor they have in the Lord, and He sanctifies them to become holy as He is holy. It is written, "Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to our people." (Prov. 14: 34).

To our Beloved Children:
What do you know about the Book of Deuteronomy?
The Purpose of the Book?
The Contents of the Book?

On one of the Jewish Feasts, Aaron, the first high priest of the Jews, noticed that many of the Jewish children gathered together were wearing beautiful and elaborate clothes specifically for the holiday. These children met in a large tent very close to the Tabernacle of meeting and got to know each other. They came from Egypt, Greece, Italy, Syria, and so on. They were all foreigners born of Jewish families and they were very proud to title themselves as children of God.
Aaron decided attending one of these meetings would be a great opportunity for him to meet and talk with the children to try and establish a good relationship with them. As Aaron walked in to meet with the children, all those who were playing turned around to notice the high priest and smiled with a look of confusion on their faces. They were thinking, “Why the first high priest is walking towards us, and what does he want from us?”
Most of them felt a sense of respect and admiration towards Aaron. To Aaron’s surprise, some of the children ran towards him and hugged him tight. He embraced them one by one and kissed them. They probably met with him before, and felt his caring paternity, his love, his simplicity, and yearning towards talking with them for their benefit.
The shy kids did not move towards Aaron, but he encouraged them to talk with him and started asking them their names and told them that he was glad that children from all over the world came to celebrate the yearly Feasts; Passover, Tabernacles, and Pentecost.
After they greeted the high priest, a child asked him: «Father, can I ask you some questions about the Tabernacle of meeting, the sacrifices, priests, Levites, and many of the cleansing rituals, because many of the non-Jewish kids ask me why we cherish the sacrifices, honor the priests and the Levites, and practice the ritual of cleansing to prevent worshiping idols, nor eat meat offered to idols?»
Aaron smiled and told the kids that he would meet with them every day until all of their questions were answered fully.
This illustrated book answers many questions: “Why do we offer so many animal sacrifices like the pagans do?”, “How are sacrifices symbols of the sacrifice of the coming Messiah?”, Why did God assign the tribe of Levites to serve Him?, Why did God choose the Levites to be his servants, if God loves everyone? “Why does God give us so many rules to live by throughout life? Like when a baby is born, or someone dies, or when a believer touches something impure, or when someone catches a disease of leprosy, or when a house gets infected with the disease of leprosy on the walls etc. Are these things specific acts of God?”, “Why did the Lord talk about the Feasts and Holidays at the end of the book instead of in the beginning?”

Young children as well as grown ups can gain much happiness from listening to the beautiful stories which are told in the book of Exodus, despite the fact that these stories took place more than thirty centuries ago.
Now I want you to close your eyes and imagine Miriam, the prophetess and sister of Aaron and Moses, imagine that you are sitting by her side along with the other children gathered around. Miriam loved to tell stories, and the children loved to hear them. She would tell them about things she herself had seen and had heard. Miriam kept many of these stories in her heart and mind, but loved to share them with the children.
I bet you are now curious to know what Miriam tells her children, who by the way are really the grandchildren of her grandchildren! Well, if you are curious, just like me, keep on reading!

The grandchildren gathered around Grandma Monica on the first day of the family’s summer vacation. Young Mina said: “Grandma, we are so happy that you have decided to spend this vacation with us. We want to hear a bedtime story each evening throughout this week of your vacation!”
Grandma Monica answered: “I would be glad to get together with you each evening and tell you the story of the most splendid journey in ancient history; it happened more than forty centuries ago. Can you guess which story I am talking about?”
John said: “Oh! Oh! I know, you are probably referring to the journey that the children of Israel made from Egypt to the land of Canaan under the leadership of the great prophet Moses.”
Grandma smiled and said: “You are such a bright child John, but the real leader was God, although He was invisible. He is the One who sent Moses the prophet to lead the people from Egypt to mount Moab, and then his disciple took over the leadership.”
This was a journey that God had planned for them and which He led Himself. It was a symbol of the journey that the Lord Jesus Christ takes us along, as we travel through this world and until we enter into heaven through His Cross. That is what results in our salvation.
In my gathering with you last week, I told you about the story of Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Moses and Aaron. This time, I will be telling you about this extraordinary journey in the wilderness. I will be talking to you about Moses from the time of his birth to the time when he left Egypt with Aaron and all the people of Israel and went into the wilderness.
