The statutes and judgments presented in 14:1—26:19 show how considerate, detailed, loving, tender, kind, merciful, gracious, sympathetic, humane, righteous, just, and fair God is. As those who have God’s life, we, the believers in Christ, should learn of God to be the same as He is (Eph. 5:1). We should walk before God and with God according to what He is. As we take God’s way and what God is, we will be transformed into His image (cf. 2 Cor. 3:18). See note Deut. 26:161.
