Israel has just come out of Egypt. God has delivered them with a mighty hand, brought them through the night of Passover, and released them from the grip of Pharaoh. But before they get too far down the road, God gives them instructions. He tells them to remember, to consecrate, to teach their children, and to live in a way that never forgets who brought them out. That tells us something important: deliverance is not the end of obedience; deliverance is the reason for obedience.
