GENESIS | 18:19 way — GEN1003 Throughout the Book of Deuteronomy, Israe...

GEN1003 Throughout the Book of Deuteronomy, Israel is called upon “to walk in all His ways.” Deuteronomy 28:9, 11:22   But this expression was already used in Genesis, before the Sinaitic revelation, in reference to Abraham [this verse]. This would indicate that these values are not merely the ways which God has commanded man to walk in but that they are actually God’s ways – i.e., the ways in which God Himself walks. These “ways” are later revealed to Moses, when he asks to be shown God’s ”glory,” as middot, attributes of moral qualities: “merciful, gracious, long-suffering, abundant in loving–kindness.” SPERO 86
