In the 19th chapter of Exodus, God promises to bless the people if they obey him fully. He reinforces his promise to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (the first 3 generations of God's people) that he will be with them wherever they go. In chapter 20, God gives them some of the most famous rules in the Bible, to show them how to live in the way that pleases him. The rest of Exodus goes into more detail about further rules that God gives his people.

If you want more rules, just read the next book... at first, it may seem like a lot, but have a look at the details.. some of them are pretty interesting or ...you might think, weird! We're going need to read chapter 16 of Leviticus before next week's sesh... see you then!
