Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble and I'm your host for the Bible Recap.

As of today, we've read six books of the Bible together.

Congratulations!

Not only that, but in finishing due to Ronomy today, we've also finished the whole Torah,

which is what the Jews call the first five books of the Bible written by Moses.

For most people, the Torah is where Bible reading plans go to die.

So the fact that you're still here is huge.

God has drawn you into something here, and I'm praying for you that He will continue

to carve out time for Himself in your schedule, to give you wisdom, knowledge, and understanding

and humility as you read, to keep showing you new things about Himself, to correct any

lies you believe about Him or anything you misunderstand, and to help these truths

take root in your heart in a way that is transformative.

I bet you've already seen that happening in your life, and maybe others have even taken

notice too, when we fix our eyes on who God is, real change takes place.

Yesterday, as we wrapped up our reading, God told Moses to write a song about the Israelites,

past, present, and future.

It would serve as a reminder to them when they recalled this song after rebelling against

God at some point in the days to come.

And it's a lengthy song, Lots of lyrics.

The song starts out by calling Israel to pay attention as He proclaims God's greatness,

which is what comes next.

And just like with most songs in poetry, we see some poetic devices used here.
