The laws flow relentlessly, one by one, a bit like a tele printer, each one filed away and cherished, and each one adding to the big picture that the Israelites are beginning to see of God.God it appears, has chosen them to be special and set apart from other tribes and nations.While many of the rules appeal to basic decency and common kindness, some seem arbitrary, legality just for the sake of it.But it seems that God is shaping his people, transforming them from the rough edged mob who made bricks in Egypt to a civilised, urbanised, informed and educated nation- a surprisingly modern nation with codes and behaviours unique to the ancient Near East.Credits:Written and produced by Chas BayfieldMusic by Michael Auld and Jon Hawkins MusicCover art by Lisa GoffChapters covered:Exodus 23-25ConversionsDimensions of the ark: 1m14 x 69cm x 61cm
