DEUT450 In Judaism, the ideas about God are synonymous with right conduct, both being intertwined and expressing the ideal of holy living and holy doing. Ethics and Religion are one and the same. Man, in whose being divinity is reflected, must be true to the Law of God wherein he will be taught how to model his ways after the divine pattern. He will find in it and its precepts that the God whom Israel must revere is the apotheosis of all ethical qualities [this and preceding verse]. The Torah, true to its function, is an infallible guide to perfection, begins with an act of kindness -- God clothing Adam and eve--and concludes with another gracious act--the burial of Moses (Sot. 14a. In this connection, it must be pointed out that just to care for the dead, whilst being impervious to the needs of the living poor, is not to be Godlike. God not only buried Moses; He clothed Adam and Eve, too.)
